Dear Valued members and patrons of the Copper Cliff Curling Club, Your board of directors are excited to announce the return to play at our facility. Last week the provincial government announced the graduated reopening of indoor sporting and recreational activities commencing on January 31st at a 50% capacity limit. Curling will return to our facility on this date based on these restrictions and will follow the same Covid protocols that were in place at our club prior to the suspension of play on Jan. 5. As a reminder, play will be limited to one sweeper, and capacity limits in washroom and locker room area have been established to achieve social distancing requirements. The implementation of these measures is being taken with the long-term health of our members, volunteers, guests, and the public in mind. We look forward to returning to regular play in the very near future. Proof of vaccination in the form of government issued QR code in digital or paper format is required to enter the premises. Vaccine certificates are no longer acceptable. Copper Cliff Curling Club will be checking to ensure all members and patrons participating in or spectating curling have valid QR codes. Follow the attached link to download and print a QR code hard copy or upload a QR code to your phone. https://covid-19.ontario.ca/get-proof/ Your board of directors of the Copper Cliff Curling Centre thanks membership and leagues for their patience and looks forward to welcoming everyone back to participate in and enjoy the great game of curling. Regards, CCCC Board of Directors...

* ANNOUNCEMENT: “TRY DOUBLES” BONSPIEL POSTPONED *   We are sad to announce the postponement of the “Try Doubles Bonspiel”, presented by the host committee of the 2022 Nickel City Curling Championships. The event was scheduled to take place on February 5th, 2022 at the Copper Cliff Curling Club, as a lead up to the 2022 Canadian Mixed Doubles Curling Championship.   Due to the high uncertainty regarding COVID restrictions leading up to the bonspiel, facility closures until at least January 26th, along with the dangerous spreading speed of the Omicron variant in Greater Sudbury and beyond, we feel as though it is prudent to push this event to a later date. The health and safety of everyone involved remains our top priority, as always. Our host committee is confident in being able to host this fun event later this Winter when the situation improves and allows us to safely move forward.   More details will be announced as we learn more about the length & severity of the current restrictions. We thank you for your understanding of this difficult decision, and we look forward to seeing everyone back on the ice in the VERY near future! ...

MEDIA RELEASE,  July 6, 2021    $109,500 OTF Grant A Cool Investment for the Copper Cliff Curling Club   Copper Cliff – In 2019, the COPPER CLIFF CURLING CLUB received a $109,500 Capital grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) to install a new ice-making plant in the community curling club’s site. The project was completed last fall and will give people in the community the chance to continue leading a healthy active and social lifestyle. “This investment by the Ontario Trillium Foundation to install a new ice-making plant in the Copper Cliff Curling Club facility is great news for our community,” said Jamie West, MPP for Sudbury. “There are many in the community who will benefit from this and it ensures that the space remains viable for all.”  The new plant equipment includes a chiller, compressor, brine pump, and glycol loop that will allow for the efficient installation of ice to provide a quality playing surface for many years. In addition to curling, the Facility is used by a variety of community organizations for events, meetings, celebrations, and fundraisers. Thanks to the $109,500 grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation, all members of the public can continue to utilize and enjoy the building.  "The impact of this Ontario Trillium Foundation grant cannot be underestimated,” said Tim Lloyd, President of the COPPER CLIFF CURLING CLUB. “This grant has allowed for the replacement of equipment that is critical to the operation of our facility to be made. The complete replacement of our ice plant will accommodate curling and events for many years to come.”  The COPPER CLIFF CURLING CLUB organization is committed to ensuring the viability of our facility as a recreational and meeting venue that will keep our community healthy and connected and to serve as a site for many activities that take place over the course of the year. If you wish to enquire about using the space for your meeting or hosting an event, please visit the website www.coppercliffcurling.com. The Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) is an agency of the Government of Ontario, and one of Canada’s leading granting foundations. OTF awarded $115 million to 644 projects last year to build healthy and vibrant communities in Ontario.    -30-   Media Contact:  Timothy Lloyd, President  Copper Cliff Curling Club  705-682-4861 [email protected]
