Good morning -

I have a couple questions about a possible group team-building adventure to curl.

1) Can we have this team-builder during the week - during working hours (Sometime between 9am-5pm)?

2) What would be the cost for a group of 8? 16? 40?

Thanks,
Matt

1). Normally yes, I need to find a number of volunteers depending on the number in your group. Unfortuanely, we don't have the ability to rent the ice until they replace the rink sometime this June, July or August.

2). Ice Cost is the same regardless of size, the rink is $299 per hour. the Group size will determine how many volunteers are needed. We recommend a $20-$40 per instructor donation to club on their behalf.

If you have a small group less than 15, you might consider just taking a "learn to curl class during our season.
