Pay online when you register
or put your check, made payable to GCC and labeled 5 & Under Spiel, in the
GCC bookkeeper office mail slot.
Whats Included
Fun!
Four games guaranteed

non-participants is $15, and advance purchase is required.
The Juniors may be hosting a
fundraiser breakfast on Sunday morning.
One free pitcher for every

Prizes!
Schedule
Start time is 8:30am Saturday
and the bonspiel will be over by 1pm Sunday.
All teams will be scheduled
for games on Saturday evening after dinner.
All participants should
expect to be at the club all day Saturday and through 1pm on Sunday.
Eligibility, Sign up, & Teams
Eligible participants are GCC
members who have curled for five years or less. This includes any years curling
at other clubs. If you are in your 6th (or later) curling season, you are no
longer eligible. If your first season started with GCC Spring Leagues, do not
count that season in your total.
Entries will be limited to
the first 60 individuals who register online and pay the fee. Spares/standbys
are encouraged to sign up even if the bonspiel appears to be full, since
cancellations do occur.
Although you may pay your fee
prior to registering, you must both register through the Club website AND pay
the fee for your registration to be complete.
This is an individual entry
competition and the bonspiel organizer will form the teams. Please include
details about your experience and regular league nights when you register.
For planning purposes, assume
that you will not be curling with a spouse or significant other on the same
team.
The sign-up deadline is
February 15th and your entry fee must be received by this date.
Format
Each team will curl four
4-end games, rotating positions for each game, to determine team ranking in
three pools.
The teams in each of the
three pools will then curl another four 4-end games to reach the prizes.
Theme
Spring Break! Get out your
beach clothes, surfboards, flip flops, sunglasses, and suntan oil. More details
are forthcoming.
