RCMP (Ottawa) Curling Club - Update on Ice Plant and Storage Shed

I want to take this opportunity to provide Club Members with an update on a major project underway at the curling club this summer – the replacement of the 30-year old ice plant and the construction of the storage shed. Upon completion of the project design and engineering, the Club put the project out to tender. Three bids were received and evaluated by our engineering consultants. The lowest bidder, Frecon Construction Ltd., was awarded the contract in June. Despite a number of small set-backs, construction is well underway. The floor is poured, walls are being erected and the mechanical equipment is being delivered. Once a roof is on the new structure, AC Mechanical will be able to start installing the new ice plant. The target date for completion of the ice plant project is late September. We fully expect to have the ice in well before the Thanksgiving weekend, with league play and rentals getting underway immediately thereafter. While this is a later start than normal, I want to assure you that a full season of curling will be scheduled for all leagues.

For those who still have not registered, please get your applications and cheques into the club as soon as possible so that league convenors can complete the draws. Thank you for your patience and enjoy the rest of the summer!

    Effective June17th, the Website will be off-line with the exception of an information page with a link to the registration form for the 2101-11 curling season. During this time the maintenance will be performed resulting in a new and improved site for you to view results, league info and club news. In addition, check in periodically to view the progress of the work being done at the club over the summer. By mid August you should be able to see for yourself the improvements to our website!

If you haven’t heard already, we are having a Wine and Cheese registration night this Thursday June 17th from 7:00pm-10:00pm. Drop in, register, bring a friend who might enjoy curling and visit with old friends! See you there!
