Locker rentals available

Tired of schlepping your curling stuff back and forth? If so a locker rental is the way to go. If you rented a locker last season simply note the number on your registration form, along with your payment and you're good to go. If you did not have a locker rental last year please email lockers@curlingseattle.org for information on available lockers. Please note, lockers without locks are not necessarily available and returning renters have first rights on a locker from the previous year.

Registration for 2013-2014 is now open. Please review the oversubscription policy. Completed registration forms can be mailed in, dropped off at GCC, or faxed in. Please remember that your registration cannot be completed until GCC has received your registration form, a signed waiver of liability, and payment or you have arranged for a payment plan.

Summer Spiel & Junior Nationals Car Wash

The Summer Spiel is set to kick off Friday with 32 teams playing down. The finals bracket is something to behold as the teams play for skins in order to win some cash. The Junior Nationals Committee is hosting a Car Wash fundraiser Saturday from 10am until 5pm. So bring down your vehicle to wash and watch some curling as well! Hope to see you there~

Brady Clark named USA Curling's 2013 Male Athlete of the Year.

Reigning national champion Brady Clark (Lynnwood, Wash.) has been named USA Curling's top male athlete for 2013.

Clark, 35, who curls out of Seattle's Granite Curling Club, skipped his team to its first men's national championship title and led Team USA to a ninth place finish at the 2013 World Men's Championship where he was the top ranked skip in shooting percentage throughout most of the round robin.

AGM 2013 Summary

Well, if you weren’t at the curling club on Saturday night, you missed a great AGM. Festive food and fun and the only thing missing was some good short jokes. Seems like they got exhausted last year. Personally, I was ready, but nothing came my way.
