New card tables for a growing RKCC section ... Social Members!

The Royal Kingston Curling Club has more to offer than just curling ... how about a warm lunch and good game of cards?

(pictured here at one of our new tables, purchased from our friends at St.Lawrence Pools, are, clockwise from bottom left: Gloria Morrill, Rita Kuhnke, Carol Knowles and Norma Burns)

Recently, RKCC invested in 6 new card tables, specifically for use by one of our fastest growing sections ... Social Members! For several years now, Diane Labrie, along with help from a number of other RKCC members, has been organizing a Monday afternoon card league, where any interested member (Social and/or Active Curlers) can play Bridge or Euchre. Players arrive by 1pm, and move between tables until 3:30 or 4pm.

The only prerequisite is that you be an RKCC member. For those not interested in curling (info on this type of membership is available on our website), a Social membership at RKCC entitles you to all the facility privileges except for ice access, and is only $54 for the season. Interested in joining now? Then let us prorate the fee and you can start right away. Dues for the second half of 2010/11, would amount to only $32.40.

Hot lunches are served daily, and cost no more than $5.50 ... come early, enjoy some good food with friends and settle in for an afternoon of cards!

And, as of Thursday, January 13, there will be a second day of cards at the club!!! The same format will apply - euchre or bridge will be played and tables will be assigned on a first come-first served basis. Start time will remain 1pm. All existing players are welcome to add the Thursday timeslot to their agendas.

Hope to see you and your friends at the club - Shuffle up and deal!!
