Responding to feedback, I am putting up this article to help explain the full league registration process. Registration for our Bozeman Curling Club Leagues is a two step proces: 1. The league registration is how your team reserves the spots in on Thursday or Sunday league. The league fee is per team and it covers the ice time for the rink. For this season the cost is $400 for the Fall session and $440 for the Winter session which includes the end of the year playoff. If you pay for Winter session now, you can get a discount of $40. 2.  Each team member must register individually their annual membership in the Bozeman Curling Club to play in league. The membership is $60 annually and covers insurance, equipment such as hacks and stones, and other club incidentals. The membership registration also includes a liability waiver which is a requirement of our insurance. So for a 4 person team to play in Fall League the total team cost would be: $400 + 4 x $60 = $640. If the team plays in both Fall and Winter the cost is $400 + $440 + $4x60 = $1080 as the memberships extend over both sessions. We want to emphasize that the Bozeman Curling Club is all voluteer and a registered non-profit.  As such all fees, payments, and donations (tax deductible!) go to operating the leagues and investing in the future of curling in Bozeman. Our vision is to expand our youth curling programs and eventually build out a dedicated curling ice facility.  ...

With our sucessful 2018-2019 season, the Bozeman Curling Club board decided it was time to invest in new set of stones to replace the older metal handled stones that we purchased from Bozeman Parks and Rec. Those stones were intended for outdoor use and were somewhat mismatched (if you played leage on Sheet 1 you should have noticed the two black stones that were noticeably different and slower than the other stones in the set). Once the decision was made, Ryan Anderson negotiated a deal with George of Philips Stone and Rink Supply (formerly Dakota Curling Supplies) of Langdon, ND to trade in these old rocks for stones of beautiful Red Trefor granite quarried in Wales + new handles (Olympic Red and Yellow) with markings of sheet and number. The new stones were lightly used by their former owners, which was a club in Winnipeg, Manitoba. To get the stones here, Ryan and Pat Anderson loaded the 1344 lbs of the old rocks, hauling them to Langon, ND and hauled back the new rocks for an 1800 mile, 4 day round trip. We all need to give Ryan and Pat a hearty cheer of thanks. Thanks! The price of the new stones was $366 ea  + diesel, but we were able to get $200 ea for the old stones and handles, so the final cost to the club is very reasonable. I am sure we are all looking forward to playing with our new stones this coming fall season. League starts on the first Sunday in November!...
