Certification looks so good! ✅ Today we hosted a @usa_curl Level I Instructor Clinic led by Barbara from @curlportland! It was a great day of learning and fun with all of the participants from our club, @SVCurling, and Lake Tahoe Epic Curling Club. 🥌

It was a dream come true to walk into the beautiful facility @bayareacurling ! The ice was very nice and we had one heck of a game… thanks to everyone who made me feel so welcome. I hope you all realize I’ll be a regular guest and you won’t be able to get rid of me!

Over the past several weeks, our team has been working with state health officials to include curling in California's tiered guidance system for recreational sports during the COVID-19 pandemic, and we’re happy to see our sport included here! cdph.ca.gov/Programs/CID/DCD…

Not sure where it came from, but we think it'll make a great bonspiel trophy! What are other curling clubs doing with their monoliths? #curling #monolith #twitterspiel @usacurl

Sadly, so far this has not gone anywhere other than to tell me what I already know, my service is affected by #PSPS . These have been a reality for more than a year, why is @ComcastCA @comcast not prepared?
