In the past month the BOD of the TCC has started a campaign aimed at raising funds for a dedicated curling facility. The program called “Building Fund Angels” rewards anyone who contributes $100.00 or more with a special pin. This campaign is also open to all TCC Club members and it is our hope that you will participate. The World Curling Federation is now offering loans of up to $33,000 per sheet of ice with the proviso that the club already has 1.5 times that amount, so for 4 sheets we can borrow $132,000 but we need to have $198,000 in the bank.

The Triangle Curling Club was well represented at the March 25, 2011 Potomac Cherry Blossom Bonspiel. 4 full triangle teams competed as well as 2 on a Nutmeg/Triangle Team and one with a team from Knoxville. While the 4 full teams did not fare as well as we would have liked they held their own. It was unfortunate the draw worked out that on Saturday afternoon all 4 teams were playing each other. Team Hamilton (Dave and Pam Hamilton, Cliff Gray and Lea Franklin) were defeated by Murray and Kathy Jackson, Sue Mitchell and Tim DeVaul. That put team Hamilton to 0 -3 and out.
