Club
- When you make an e-transfer for a payment to the ACC please include the reason for the transfer in the comment section.
- PROTECT OUR ICE! Please only wear shoes dedicated for curling onto the ice surface. These don’t have to be curling shoes; they can be running or athletic shoes that are ONLY used for curling. Don’t wear outdoor shoes in the lounge either, to reduce the amount of grit that comes into the club and could be transferred to the ice. Good ice is essential for good curling.
50/50 Draw
The 50/50 draw will continue to run virtually and members who want to participate contribute upfront (22 weeks x $2) for the full season with draws starting October 30.
All adult members’ names are entered in the draw. If the selected member has not paid to participate, the prize is not paid out and will roll over, adding to the next week’s jackpot. This will continue each week until a paid member's name is drawn – meaning bigger prizes to be won!
If you want to participate, simply e-transfer $44 to etransfer@almontecurling.ca. Please indicate 50\50 and Your Name in the comment section of your transfer.
