Membership FAQs
Q: Does my membership fee cover part of the ice cost for league play?
A: Yes, all memberships are now considered "All You Can Curl" and they include the cost of insurance and all League Fees so you can curl in as many leagues as you desire at no additional cost.
Q: What are the costs of running the Charlotte Curling Association?
A: We maintain our own facility now, so we have costs such as the lease payment, electric bills and other utilities, and upkeep and maintenance. We also have costs associated with our purchased rock sets, liability and specialty insurance specifically for the rocks, general insurance for all assets, fees to the USCA and GNCC, and curling equipment such as brooms, stabilizers, and sliders.
Q: Is curling more expensive than playing other ice sports?
A: Actually, no. Adult hockey leagues can cost hundreds of dollars per season, not counting the equipment each player must buy for themselves. Figure skating can run into the thousands with private lessons, the cost of skates, costumes, and so on. Compared to those sports, curling is far less expensive!
Q: Where can I find your Bylaws?
