Since 1956, the OVCA through volunteer based committees has organized highly successful and fully subscribed bonspiels for curlers across the Ottawa Valley. The OVCA board is very appreciative of the excellent work by the committee members. We also want to thank club boards, managers, bartenders,volunteers and the ice technicians at the 15 plus clubs for their contribution to the success of the bonspiels.
We realize that curlers have many responsibilities and find it difficult to squeeze in time to volunteer. As a result, over the past few years, it has become increasingly difficult to staff the organizing committees. In particular, finding volunteers for the OVCA Mixed Bonspiel and the City of Ottawa Men’s Bonspiel has proven to be a challenge -- we need chairpersons and committee members for both bonspiels by June 15, 2013 in order to start planning for events in the next curling season. The OVCA Mixed and Men’s Bonspiel Committee Responsibilities document is available on our website under the About Us/ Committee Chairs (Committee Responsibilities) on the OVCA website (OVCA or by contacting

) in addition, each committee has a template and detailed task list in place ... all we need are volunteers. A list of vacant positions is below. If we don’t have enough volunteers these two bonspiels are at risk of not happening in 2014.

to volunteer or for more information. Your ideas and suggestions are welcome!

Attention, everyone! Announcing a fundraiser for the Granite Curling Club! This is your chance to get your name, or the name of a loved one, engraved on a stone handle. We will be purchasing brand new handles, and for $300, you can have one or two names engraved on a handle. These handles will be kept for ten years. That’s only $30 a year to see your name flying down the ice to take out an opponent’s rock or making that perfect draw to the button. Please see Denise, the Club Manager, to order your handle today! All funds raised will go to the renovations of the Granite Curling Club facility. Deadline: April 30, 2014. |
