With the heat and smoke of summer fading into the milder weather of fall, why not try out one of the coolest winter sports this year? Curling has been part of the Olympics since 1998, and you might have caught it on TV in February. If it looked like fun (it is!) and easy (...?), here's your chance to give it a shot yourself!

The Boise Curling Club is hosting a Learn-To-Curl event on Monday, September 28th from 6:30pm to 8:30pm. The club's instructors will first guide you through an off-ice session for 15-20 minutes, then lead you out onto the ice for roughly 90 minutes of on-ice instruction, culminating in a short game.

The cost is $40 per person for a session. Aim to arrive by 6:30pm for the intro and safety briefing.

The fine print:

While all ages are welcome, curling stones weigh about 44 pounds and require a certain amount of weight and force to be successfully propelled down the ice. Therefore, we recommend that participants are 12 years or older. Modifications and delivery aids are available for participants with limited mobility.

Space is limited, so register now to reserve your spot! Our next Learn-To-Curl event won't be until January. Don't forget to read our cancellation policy.

To help kick off the 2026-27 season, the Boise Curling Club is hosting a mini-bonspiel on Sunday, October 4th from 5-9pm, with a BBQ beforehand from 2:30-4:30.
