Our team is hard at work trying to set up and establish a new curling facility in the west end.  Now that St. George's is closing, it will leave us with only 5 sheets west of Yonge Street in Toronto.  This is not acceptable.  We have been busy getting signatures for our petition to present to city council in the fall and are working with city politicians and city staff to make certain our new curling club will be built.   Find your City Councillor Here and let them know how important it is to you to have a city owned, member run curling club in the west end of Toronto.

HELP US TO HELP YOU!

During our negotiations with the city we have come to the realization that if we want action and we want it fast, we cannot come to their table with empty pockets. They have let us know that in order to get to the front of their line, we will need to show up with some funding.  So, our very first fundraiser is going to be a bonspiel!  It's going to be fantastic.  We hope to have some surprise special guests and we're going to have whole lot of fun and good curling.                                                                           Details will follow! 

Want to Say Goodbye in style to St. George's after 60 years?

As you are aware curling at St. George’s will end after one more season. After over 60 years, the 2019/2020 Season will be their last.

For those of you who have not found a new curling home, they are inviting you to join them and have offered the following rates for curling this final season for anyone that was previously a member at St. George's.

· $1465 (Plus tax) club house fees. This will give you full clubhouse privileges until October 2020. These privileges include the option of joining the fitness and winter golf school for the appropriate additional fee.

· $400 (Plus Tax) curling membership fees for unlimited curling

· $700(Plus Tax) minimum spend (food only) over the curling season with no quarterly minimums.  No summer minimum.

$1000 debenture required, to be refunded once membership is terminated.

· No additional fees for capital expenditures

Note: new members (non-returning) would be subject to a $1500 initiation fee. 

This final season will focus on celebrating the long proud history of curling at St. Georges ending with Champions Day in April 2020. Plans this year include special "celebrating our past" bonspiels, potentially including Ryder Cup spiel with Weston and other club teams playing "veteran" St. George’s teams.
