A big hello to all Weekend Mixed curlers. With Andrew moving on to assume the VP role on the OCC Board, I wanted to introduce myself as your new convenor and representative on the Board. Jan and I have curled in this league since 1997 and look forward to helping carry on the fun and fellowship we have experienced over the years.
Here are a few things you will want to know to plan for the coming year:
- Opening weekend will be Oct 18/19
- Draw 2 will include the weekend of Dec 20/21 and start up again on the January 10/11 weekend
- For those long-range planners, the Championship Weekend has been scheduled for April 4-6, 2025
- Based on feedback from the year end survey about the dreaded Saturday 9:00 PM slot, note that the club has revised Saturday draw times to 3:30pm, 5:45pm and 8:00 PM. Friday ice times will remain the same at 6:40 and 9:00 PM.
Registration has been robust with several newcomers joining the league. For those signed up as individuals or as a couple, over the next several weeks as other registrations roll in I’ll do my best to help you find a suitable team to enjoy the year with. If you haven’t already done so, please reach out to me with any information or requests that might help that process along. I’m also planning to have a Weekend Mixed table set up at the Open House on Sept 22nd to greet old friends and welcome newcomers. Looking forward to seeing you all soon!
