Did you have a chance to watch the American men and women curling teams compete at the last Winter Olympics? Did you think that it looked like a fun game? Here is your chance to learn all about curling and to try your hand at playing the game. Curling is an ancient game that began in Scotland several hundred years ago, but continues to be played in many countries, most notably in Canada and the U.S. Curling is a game of skill that most people can pick up quickly, but it takes years to master. Players often play into their 70s (your instructors are in their 70s) using adaptive equipment and techniques, and many players pick up the game after retirement, which is what your instructors did! The great part is that you can have fun and enjoy playing at any skill level. The Upper Valley Curling Club provides all equipment; you need to have warm clothing and shoes with non-skid soles. In a two hour session there will be breaks as needed to warm up, as most of the class after the first session will be held on the ice. Class will be at the Wendell A. Barwood ice arena in White River Junction. There will be a small charge (lab fee) to cover the arena rental and equipment use.
