Cottams
Curling like you've never seen before!
April 5, 2025
Cottams is back!!!! The most prestigious event that is held at our club.
When: Saturday April 5th
Time: 9:00am with 8:30am eye openers
Who: Any WCC member
Cost: $25.00
This year will be a little different than the last 85 years, since we had a condensed version of our curling season. We still have leagues going on after our event which means we cannot destroy the ice on Friday night.
However, Fear Not, we will still make it extremely fun for all. We just have to be a bit more creative on the games that will be played, whether it is a short game, a leaster, speed curling, I make something up.....etc. I am open to suggestions.
We can even play some games between games, left right center, bar dice and hockey. Paul might even bring down his dreidel which are all quality curling games, it would be wise of you to bring down some single dollar bills.
As to the format, it will be a 4-person team, 3 different formatted games and everyone’s favorite, 4-end games. We will get the games done first and then eat, you are then free to go home or hang out for a pop.
Typically I would ask for volunteers to assist in wrecking the ice on Friday night which will not be needed, however, I could use some assistance in making jello shots for the Cottams. Afterwards, we can practice playing the above-mentioned games except for curling.
Also, I will be selling one pound blocks of 15-year-old cheddar for $20. For every pound sold, $5 will go to the club.
If you plan on attending, you can sign up online.
Last and final note, you will have the ability online to sign up just for the spiel or just to hang out, drink and eat, the cost will be the same.
If you have any questions, you can email me. Thanks, and good curling.
