The Cobden Curling Club kicks off the season with their annual ‘Community Bonspiel’ – commencing Monday, October 27 through to Saturday, November 1. This is a great opportunity for anyone in the community, experienced or not, to curl and participate in a social and entertaining time.

The Bonspiel consists of curling three pre-arranged games over 6 days with a catered supper on Saturday, November 1 at a cost of $22/person. Tickets for dinner only cost $12/person. An invitation is extended to everyone to bring out a friend, neighbour or fellow employee. Curling brooms are available but you must bring your own clean pair of rubber-soled running shoes.
