Hey Young Associates!
What are you doing on November 20th?
If you're not sure, let's change that. Come and join us for the Young Associates Curling Night. Whether you are a veteran on the ice or a total newcomer to the game, you are welcome at the Fort Rouge Curling Club from 5 pm - 6:30 pm to try throwing some stones.
While parking is ample, space in the venue is limited. Make sure to move quickly if you want to reserve one of the 24 spots (don't worry, there will be a waiting list if you miss your first shot).
If this sounds like your kind of night, register here:
