As many of you know, curling is not just a sport—it's a vibrant social experience that brings our community together. From the camaraderie on the ice to the laughter and conversations in the lounge, curling creates connections and friendships that extend beyond the rink.

In order to enhance our social environment and ensure everyone's enjoyment, it's important that we maintain a safe and responsible atmosphere. That’s why having Smart Serve certified members at our club is crucial. Smart Serve certification equips our club with the knowledge and skills to serve alcohol responsibly, ensuring that our social gatherings are both enjoyable and safe for everyone.

By having Smart Serve certified members, we’re not just adhering to regulations; we're committing to a higher standard of care and responsibility. This certification helps us manage our events effectively and ensures that all members and guests can relax and have fun with peace of mind.
