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 $425 for the Fall session and $450 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 $50.
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: $425 + (4 x $60) = $640. If the team plays in both Fall and Winter the cost is $425 + $425 + $4x60 = $1090 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.
