With the Fredericton Zone moving to the Orange Phase at midnight on Thursday November 26th, the information received from Curling New Brunswick after consultation directly with the Province of New Brunswick has confirmed that "Curling is a sport that can be played with the modifications contained in the Curling Canada Return to Play Guidelines while constantly maintaining the 2 metre physical distancing and with the addition of masks being mandatory on the ice". Bar Service will be limited to on ice consumption. Curlers are asked to arrive no more than 30 minutes prior to the start of your scheduled game and you should leave immediately upon the completion of your game to reduce the number of people inside the building at any one time. Screening at the door will now include temperature checks of everyone so we will have (2) people at the door performing this task and we ask for your patience.
Masks must be worn at all times when inside the building with the exception of when you are sweeping. At no other time should you have your mask off. In addition, please remember the following protocols:
** Entry to the building is always through the front door and Exit from the building is always from the side door.
** Curlers only enter the Ice Shed after the buzzer has sounded.
The Club will be closing at noon on Friday, November 27th and will be closed on Saturday, November 28th to allow staff to prepare for the return of League Play on Monday and we will also be doing a deep clean of the entire building. The Youth Development program will take place as usual on Sunday.
Please continue to follow our Social Media pages and CWC website for any immediate updates and newsletters will be released to coincide with any major announcements or changes.

Your safety and your ability to continue to curl is our top priority! We have been working for the last few months to prepare for a second wave of COVID -19. With the number of cases on the rise in other Zones, the Department of Health has instituted new protocols that we will be implementing here at the Capital Winter Club.
One of these new protocols will be active screening as you enter the building. Please do a self-screening before you leave your home and if you are not feeling well let your skip know you can’t make your game. Other safety protocols being implemented are that masks are to be worn on the ice when you are not sweeping. As well, we will be reviewing the social distancing on ice policy before each draw and ask that each curler make sure they are adhering to the rules while on the ice.
These changes were ratified at an emergency Board Meeting on Saturday November 21st.
We appreciate all that you are already doing to help keep COVID away, but as Dr. Jennifer Russell said, there is always more we can do and now is the time to do it.

The 5th annual CWC Skins Cash Spiel will take place at the Club from January 8th - 10th, 2021 and this year we hope to have a maximum of (24) teams with each team guaranteed (5) games. Skins Curling is an exciting format as normally there are lots of rocks in play and cash is won based on ends won in each game and overall final standings. Mens, Womens and Mixed teams are all welcome.
