December 16
Effective Monday Dec 21 to Sunday January 10, the curling club can open for practices limited to 25 participants without physical distancing but games and tournaments are not permitted – so there will be no league play or spiels during this timeframe.
Check out our Orientation Video for returning to the club!

HCC COVID-19 Facility Guidelines - 2020/2021 Season (rev Sep 24)
Revisions September 24:
Face Masks - Face masks are strongly recommended to be worn while curling. They are no longer mandatory while curling according to direction from NSCA, Sport NS and Communities, Culture and Heritage. Masks must be worn when walking into the ice shed, while sanitizing stones and warming up. Once the game starts, masks may be removed. Masks must be put on once the draw is complete.
Physical Distancing – Effective October 1, 2020, the number of people who can participate in a sport without physical distancing will increase to 50. Players will no longer need to remain physically distant while curling. Two sweepers can now be used. Skips and thirds can remain together at the backboard. Also, rocks can now be swept after the tee line. Curling on the ice will be very close to normal.
