End of the Curling Season

This season has been AMAZING! I couldn’t have asked to curl with a better group of people! Ending the year with over 30 members and already getting emails from people who want to join the team next year is so  beyond exciting. I wish the next president and exec team the best of luck as they take on their new leadership roles!

Break for the Olympics

What a great season! All of our new members know the rules of curling and have been doing great out on the ice! Now it’s time to take a short break before we enter Circle City Curling Club’s bracket. Perfect timing too! The winter Olympics are on, with 3 USA teams.

 

Below are pictures of a recent game and some of our members who participated in raising money for Riley Childen’s Hospital at Butler University’s Dance Marathon.

Fall 2016 wrap-up

Hey guys,

I just wanted to say how fantastic this fall season has been. I’ve been so impressed with not only how many new members we’ve gained this year, but also the level of enthusiasm this Freshman class has shown for our club. As the fall semester draws to a close, we’re looking toward the spring. I’m keeping my eye out for bonspiels next semester, and I’m still trying to coordinate hosting our own in Fort Wayne after we come back from break.

Thanks for a fantastic fall semester, best luck on your finals, and happy holidays!

Spring 2016 wrap-up

Two weeks ago, we finished out our spring season with Circle City Curling at the Arctic Zone in Westfield. While we may not have finished in the position we would liked to, our members played hard week in and week out.

We were also able to get quite a bit of practice and experience in for new club members this season due to the high number of people volunteering to play in the weekly games.

As we look toward the Fall of 2016, we’re currently planning to host our Butler Bonspiel at Fort Wayne Curling Club sometime around October/November.

Fall 2015 wrap-up

Butler just finished our last events for the Fall semester: we played our last game with Circle City Curling this week and we sent a team to Rice Lake, WI for a university bonspiel.

Next semester, we’re going to start up our Spring season with Circle City and we’ll be prepping for a university bonspiel hosted by us!

The year is starting off strong for Butler Curling! We have started our league with Circle City Curling Club playing at ArcticZone Iceplex in Westfield, IN. We’ve already won our first game of the year and hoping to win many more!

Spring 2015 Season

Our spring season has started for the Spring 2015 semester!

We’ve already had a few games at The Forum in Fishers, IN with Circle City Curling and we’re having a great time as usual! We savored our first victory over great burgers at The Ram right across the street and hung out with the great teams in the Circle City League.

We’re hoping this will be a great season and a season with lots of new members! League games are (usually) Saturdays 6:30-8:30! Contact Phil Tock (ptock@butler.edu) if you want to attend a game!
