Curling season is just getting underway, and our members are making travel arrangements for the first away bonspiels of the season!  This weekend (Oct 16-19), some of our ladies are heading to New Jersey to participate in the 10th Annual Mid-Atlantic Women’s Bonpspiel, hosted by the Plainfield Curling Club. CCVa will be represented by Alex Carroll, BJ Palso, Christine Alessi, and Kirsten Frese Collins.

Next month, several club members will travel the East Coast participating in the Cool Duck (11/7-9) at Ardsley Curling Club (NY),  1st Annual Embassy Row Bonspiel (11/14-16) at the Potomac Curling Club (MD), and at the Harvest Bonspiel (11/20-23) at the Philadelphia Curling Club (PA).

As more bonspiel registrations become open and events on the calendar, look for more CCVa members curling abroad!  But, there is no need to leave the River City to curl!  CCVa’s Fall League begins Saturday, October 18 at 8:30 pm.  Register online for the 6-week league in Richmond.

Good luck this weekend, Ladies, and good curling to all our members!
