Windy City Curling - Villa Park

• Friday Night Learn to Curl Session for One or Two
• Includes an Introduction to Curling, On-Ice Lesson, Game Play and Broomstacking (question and answer about curling)

• Curling earned the nickname “The Roaring Game” because of the rumbling sound a curling stone makes when it’s delivered and how it glides across rough ice
• Learn to Curls are events that are held through out the year that allow anyone who is not a member of the club to try curling out for an evening. Absolutely no experience is necessary!

• Several of their members will always be on hand to help you along and to answer any questions you may have
• You do not need any special equipment or any prior experience. They only ask that you bring a clean pair of shoes that you are not wearing when you walk in so we can keep the ice clean and to dress warmer since you will be on the ice
