That evening, we will also be hosting a volunteer appreciation night wiith food and cheap drinks as well the band 10 Cent Wings. It will definitely be a party you won't want to miss.

Come out and celebrate Howard, Rich, Chris, Paul and Phil on Saturday October 14th as the 2023 World Senior Men's Champions. 

Doors open at 6:00pm, we will be serving hors d'oeuvres and The Remainders will also be performing. 

These cold nights are giving us fall vibes. While the summer may not be over yet, it is time to regsiter for another season at the Rideau!

Please remember that all curlers need to submit their Smart Waiver forms. Unfortunately, you will not be permitted on the ice until you do so make sure to get your forms in! You can access the forms by selecting one of the categories below:

The best way for our Club to remain healthy and vibrant, is to have full curling programs!  Our Learn-To-Curl and Youth Programs are full, which bodes well for the future, but our day and evening programs weren’t full last season. The Board has received some suggestions from the Day Curlers that we will be considering over the summer, but we would also like to brainstorm how to best fill our night leagues.

If you have any specific suggestions to share, or would like to participate in this brainstorming session, please reach out to Phil Dunville, Director – Curling Programs, at [email protected].

Please join us on Wednesday, April 26th at 7 PM for our Annual Spring Meeting.
