Manitoba
is in the process of implementing a new membership model for the
2011-2012 season.
In order to belong to Curl Manitoba and the CCA, a curling club like DLCC must pay an annual fee. The current model is based on charging curling clubs based on the number of sheets of ice they have in their facility. The new model will see a switch from a per sheet model to a individual membership fee charged to each curler in Manitoba of between $3 and $4 (yet to be finalized). For a summary of why CurlMB are changing to the new model, click on ........Reasons For a summary of CurlMB's view of the process, click on .................Process Curl Manitoba has provided some frequently asked questions & answers , click on..... FAQ This new fee would apply to most everyone curling at Deer Lodge in any one of the 19 leagues at our club (approximately 1,000 participants in total). The Deer Lodge Board is studying how to work with all the leagues to implement the necessary changes in ice rental contracts and our internal processes. Note : Curl Manitoba must still ratify this change at their annual meeting in June, but we anticipate this will be approved so we are proceeding on that basis. > Saturday Mar 19 Steak Dinner (posted Mar 12, 2011)There

groups
teed off at 1 p.m. on Friday June 11th at the Assiniboine Golf
Club for our annual Deer Lodge Golf Day. Once again
it was a Texas scramble format.
Not all groups chose to finish as a downpour hit the already
soggy course at about the halfway point.
After golf back at the Lodge, our chef for the evening George Smith fired up the big BBQ ( courtesy of Custom Truck Sales). He did a great job with the steaks preparing them to our individual tastes. Curling applications for the 2010-11 season were collected throughout the evening. After dinner all the scores were tallied and emcee Dan Sul announced the winners. The low net team score for the day, an unbelievable 12 under par 60, was turned in by the Brent Mackie group. On the team with Brent were Gary Lacey, Garry Cornelson and Gerry Bell. Cornelson also won the prize for the longest drive of the day on hole number 3. To top it off they also inflicted damage to the Assiniboine Club House when one of the group sculled a lob wedge on the 9th hole sending the ball through one of the windows in the bar area. The team with the highest net score (and the most honest) was the Colin McLachlan group. Helping to achieve that recognition were Jack & Jim Gordon, Dan Gagne and Al Titheridge. Closest to the pin honours went to Scott Hanson for his shot on the par three 4th hole. Door prizes were handed out next followed by the draw for the free membership. All the curling applications received to date were shuffled by Brent before getting Colin to make the random selection. The lucky winner drawn was Wayne Buckle. Thanks go to Dan Sul & crew for organizing the event and to Jody & Shirley at the bar. > Golf Day Tee Times (posted Jun 9, 2010)Deer
