The men's Butterfly Bonspiel is one of several events coming up at the Creston Curling Centre.

Bonspiel season is upon the Creston Curling Centre as the calendar rolls into February. The 52nd women’s Valentine Bonspiel will be held on the weekend of Feb. 6-8. Come out and enjoy some of the best women curlers in the Kootenays. There will be a DJ in the lounge on Friday and Saturday night, and it promises to be a great time as always.

The junior curling program started up again on Jan. 6 and a wind-up Bonspiel will be held Feb. 14. This will be a fun-filled day for all the young curlers who’ve been having a great time learning the game over the course of the winter.

The B.C. provincial high school playdowns are the next event on the club’s busy schedule. The best young teams from the province will be making the trek to Creston to compete on the weekend of Feb. 18-21. Please come out and show your support for the future of B.C. curling, cheering on the representing Kootenay teams.

Sign up has begun for the milestone 70th annual men’s Butterfly Bonspiel, which will run March 5-8. The last bonspiel of the season is looking to be another great weekend of competition.
