There is no date or contact information that I could find. My friend and I would like to attend the Feb 25 event, but would need more information to attend.
You can call 618-398-4600 ext. 109. Classes cost $25 and last one hour. Hope to see you there.
My daughter who is twelve would like to curl. Are there any club activities for teens or children?
Nothing exclusively for kids, at this point, but your daughter would be welcome at Learn to Curl clinics, which will start up again in the fall.
Thanks much Craig -- we'll check the website again in the Fall for Learn to Curl Clinic times, dates and location.
