Hello DCC Members,

The DCC Board held an election during the End of Season Banquet on Friday, March 18 to elect new members to the DCC Board of directors to each serve 3-year terms. Congratulations to:

• Jason Kraus
• Margie Nelson
• Jesse Trelstad

We know you will do a tremendous job serving the club!

The board would like to thank all the nominees for running for the board and look forward to another great season in 2022-23.

Board Retirements

We would also like to thank retiring board member, Jon Peterson, for serving for 7 years on the board, and for 3 years as board secretary.  Jon was efficient, concise, and very organized. He was the perfect person to serve as the board note taker.

Tony Lasky is stepping down from the board after 15 years of service on the board of directors. Tony served the last 4 years as President and prior to that, he served as Vice President for 4 years. Some of the highlights of his tenure on the board:

• The curling floor was replaced
• The kitchen and bar were replaced
• The downstairs had a new modern look with fresh paint, new carpet, and new tables and chairs
• The boardroom was redone with a new conference table and a new way to display the pictorial history of the club
• Tony says he would prefer to forget about the ice plant failing multiple times and Covid-19 happening

Club Donation

The DCC would also like to thank Daryl Carlson for his generous cash donation to purchase cameras, monitors, and vital equipment to show sheets 1-4 via the webcam for those wanting to see more curling action, or watching someone practice.

Daryl is also donating the ongoing costs for the bandwidth needed to have the ability to run that many cameras at the same time. Daryl said that the curling club has been his family for 40 years and he wanted to do something to give back to the club.

Thank you, Daryl, you are awesome! 

A huge thank you to all our members for a successful and fun curling season.

Good curling!

Last year, the club implemented the Ice Booking tool via our website.

You must use the online ice reservation system prior to practicing AND prior to 1:1 games. Not reserving ice may result in getting kicked off the sheet by the person who did use the reservation system. 

Currently, DCC management is working on getting an iPad and screen in the lower level of the club so you will be able to reserve ice time from there and see current bookings. We will let you know once that solution has been put into place. In the meantime, please use the following directions to book ice time from your computer or phone. 

Directions: How to Use the Online Reservation System

1) Log into the DCC website.

2) Go to the Member's Only tab in the navigation menu.

3) Under the "Other" header, click on "Book Ice Time."

4) If you are on a computer you will be able to see all the ice sheets and all the availability for booking time slots - they will be in green. If you are on a phone you will need to click on the blue "Select a Resource" button and choose an ice sheet you'd like to view for availability.

5) The website will automatically put today's date but you are welcome to put a different date in if you'd like to book ice time days in advance. 

6) Once you find the time and sheet you'd like to book ice time on, click on the green box during that time slot. Then navigate to the bottom of the webpage where you'll see a green button that says "Next." Click on that.

7) Enter your name, phone number, and email and click "Next."

8) Then click "Submit Request."

9) Once you submitted the request the ice has been reserved for you.
