WELCOME TO THE 2021/2022 CURLING SEASON!

A big welcome to all returning curlers and, if you are a new curler to ESPCC, thanks so much for choosing our club. We hope you all have a fantastic curling season.

We are all looking forward to playing the game we love. There are very few COVID related on ice restrictions this year, so we’re happy to say it’s pretty much curling like it used to be.

Overview:

Once you hit the ice this season, the game will pretty much return to PRE-COVID times. Here is a summary:

For the game itself:

• The ability to use two sweepers and for all curlers, including opposing skips, to sweep rocks in the house.
• Sanitizer will be available for cleaning rock handles.
• Physical distancing is still highly recommended.

•  Youth 11 yrs & under: May dine in or attend the lounge but must be accompanied by a fully vaccinated parent or guardian.

We are thrilled to introduce East St.Paul Curling Club’s new look!

These dynamic logos checks all the boxes...

     Vibrant and exciting ✅
     Appealing to all ages ✅
     Inviting (come and CURL ESP) ✅
     Soon to become an easily recognizable Brand for curling in ESP ✅

Many thanks to our selection panel! Evan Martin, Kari Hemminger, Rachel Haworth and Ray McDougall, all curlers, each represent a different demographic of the Club. Their input in the final design was invaluable.

We couldn’t have accomplished this without our designer! Local ESP resident and graphic designer Darryl Hartle very generously donated his talent and time in creating this outstanding new image for curling in our community.

We are now starting the process of changing signage and looking into the possibility of offering exciting new merchandise (hats, vests, jackets) highlighting our new look. 

We feel this new look will be the spark to ignite an exciting, welcoming and prosperous future for curling in East St. Paul.

Debbie Palson, Board Member (On behalf of the East St.Paul Curling Club Board of Directors)

Due to the continued extension of RED-Critical Response Level, the ESPCC Board of Directors has decided to cancel any attempt to reschedule the Nov 2020 AGM. The next AGM will be scheduled for the fall of 2021.

In the meantime, if you are interested in either becoming a board member or participating as a member on one of our committees, please EMAIL US.
