Coach Dalton Curls!
The Olympic sport of curling has arrived in Klamath Falls!
Our beautiful 42 pound granite stones or ‘rocks’ as they are affectionately called, have been added to our very lengthy equipment inventory and eagerly await curlers of all ages (eight and older) to come out and curl with them. Curling is played on the ice in comfortable shoes with good traction (i.e. no skates required)….the rocks are ‘thrown’ (slid) down the ice and then swept with special curling ‘brooms’ towards the curling ‘houses’…an ‘end’ takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and a regulation game takes approximately two hours and spans eight ends. Four teams of four curlers each can compete at the same time.
Klamath Ice Sports has two trained curling instructors, West and Riley, and a number of talented apprentices who would love to share their curling enthusiasm with you! No previous skill is required and fun is had by all! We offer ‘Learn to Curl’ sessions which start out with some classroom time and then progress to on ice instruction and practice; all the necessary equipment is provided. These sessions are $10 per person and we can accomodate up to twenty people per session. Our ‘Drop in Curling’ sessions offer on ice instruction and equipment as well; these sessions are $15 per person and we can accomodate up to 16 people (four teams of four). The ‘Drop in Curling’ sessions are perfect for people who want to bring their own team or join an existing team who might be short a player or two. We suggest advance registration via our secure online registration site (click on the ‘register online’ icon on the top of our home page) or via the phone at (541) 850-5758 ext. 7, however you are more than welcome to take your chances and just come out and register in person day of. During Winter Break, our ‘Drop in Curling’ sessions are discounted to $12 per person! Private ice rentals can also be made for those people who might want to curl at a time that isn’t listed on our regular or holiday schedule.
Curling is the perfect recreational activity for individuals, friends, neighbors, co-workers, children and adults! There is nothing more fun than being outside at the Bill Collier Community Ice Arena than enjoying our beautiful sheet of ice while getting some fresh air and exercise with other enthusiastic guests!
Klamath Falls ROCKS!
