WCC Planning Meeting - Mar 23rd

Interest continues to be strong for a curling club here in the city! We've heard from at least 70 people that are interested in the sport. Next Tuesday, Mar 23rd, we'll be meeting to discuss plans for the Club. We'll be at the Fox & Hound(Waterfront) at 6:30 PM. If you would like to be a part of the planning process, or have ANY input that could help make this club a success please show up! Email me or sign up above to let me know that you'll be attending. Hope to meet many of you there!

We especially need people with expertise in:

-marketing
-web development
-legal matters(we will eventually get registered as a non-profit organization)
-organizational structure
-fabrication(would be cheaper if we were able to make a lot of our own equipment)
-passion for the sport of curling:)

If you can't make it but would still like to be involved in planning let me know. We have a lot of interest and if we can expand a little more on what we already have, we can make a really strong organization!

Kansas City Club "learn to curl" classes filling up fast

If you want to try your hand at curling now, the best way is to attend a "learn to curl" class at the Kansas City Curling Club. Open spots are filling up very fast. If you can't get in this season you will likely have to wait until the summer or fall to give it a try. So sign up, and have some fun!

Interested in Curling?

The Wichita Curling Club is currently a small group of people that travel to the Kansas City Curling Club once every month or two to practice curling and have fun with the great people involved in the sport. We’re always looking for more people to become involved so we can add another team or have a rotating group of people that head up weekly to represent our city in the sport of curling. We also travel yearly to the KC clubs bonspiel in April, which is a weekend tournament, and gathering. We welcome people of all ages, genders, and experience levels, and would love to have you be a part of it!!

Please check out the KC curling club at www.kccurling.com for an explanation of the sport of curling and their fees and schedule.

One day we hope to have a curling club of our own in Wichita, but first we need to have a core group of people that are dedicated to seeing that dream become a reality. If we get enough people interested, the Kansas City Curling Club has offered to bring their curling stones down to have a Wichita Curling open house! If you are at all interested in seeing this happen or a club forming please get involved now so we can get some excitement going for the future!
