We are a unique facility in Eastern Ontario, offering both Curling and Squash to all of our members.
Come and enjoy four sheets of some of the best curling ice around as well as two squash courts, a well equipped exercise room and a comfortable lounge for relaxing and rehashing that crazy 8th end!
Take a look around - we're glad you dropped by!
The future of our wonderful Smiths Falls Curling and Squash Club!
At this time, we are challenged by operating costs which don’t go away just because there is no curling activity. Our fixed costs are just that. They are fixed and they are made up of costs related to gas, hydro, water, insurance, property taxes etc…
Our club is strong and steadfast due to the support and participation of our amazing members, as well as being known as one of the best curling and squash facilities in Eastern Ontario.
COVID 19 has put our curling and squash communities in a tough position and as a result, we need to maintain our club if we really want to keep it going! We are all owners of our club, and we are appealing to you for donations to ensure our future success.
When you click on the DONATE rock you will be taken to our Square payment processor. There you can select from $50, $75 or $100 or add your own amount. Your Credit Card information is secure and is not stored or recorded at the Club.
We would like to extend a very special thank-you to those of you who have recognized the importance in the future of our club and have already made financial donations. As of November 25th we have received over $2500 so far.
Urgent Survey for Curling in 2021
Once again we are contacting members to gauge the interest in proceeding with a half year of curling beginning in January 2021. We hope to curl as far as we can into April, weather permitting.
In order to decide if we can proceed, we need a firm commitment from those of you who decide to curl this January.
The half year rate is $370 and $100 of this amount will be non-refundable if we are forced to close the club. This money will be kept for helping with the cost of the installation of the ice.
Again, we do require a firm commitment from you and we need you to contact us prior to December 4th. Payment will be required by December 6th in order to begin the ice installation process immediately after. Please contact the office either by return e-mail or directly by phone.
Please also contact your friends and family members who may have indicated to you that they would like to be involved in a winter sport, and ask them to contact the office or any Board Member with their commitment to curl in January.
Sincerely,
The Board of Directors
The Smiths Falls Curling & Squash Club.
Ken Wyman Recognized for Volunteer Service
The Club's Annual General Meeting began with the presentation of two well-deserved awards to Ken Wyman.
The first was the Ottawa Valley Curling Association Ken Thain Award that recognizes outstanding volunteers each year from the valley curling clubs. We thank Al McPhee (left), Past President of OVCA, for being here to speak about OVCA, as well as to take part in honouring Ken. Richard Burroughs (right) made the presentation after he spoke about Ken’s many volunteer activities (building “Mr. Fix-it”, coordinator of Friendlies and leagues, kitchen volunteer, Board member and many, many other roles) from the first year he joined the club.
Club President, Louise McInnis, added Ken’s name to the SFC&SC Honour Roll in recognition of his dedication to the club.
