If you are curious about the game of curling, now you can try it. On Sunday, July 7th at 5:45 p.m. the Upper Valley Curling club will hold a short course on curling at the Union Arena in Woodstock for people who have not yet played the game. The club is a diverse group of individuals who regularly curl in the upper valley and they would love to show you how to play. Many people watched the USA win gold in Curling at the last Winter Olympics. Whether you watched then or not, here is your chance to find out how much fun the game can be.

The clinic costs $25 per person and registration is required. To register, or for more information about the club, please visit https://www.uppervalleycurling.org.

The club provides all equipment; all you need to do is wear warm clothing, including a hat and gloves, and bring shoes with clean, non-skid soles. Experienced curlers will teach you the elements of curling and you will get to practice on the ice. Space is limited so sign up early! For more information about the clinic please email uppervalleycurling@gmail.com.

Union Arena is conveniently located on the grounds of the Woodstock Union High School on Route 4 just 11⁄2 miles west of the Woodstock Village.
