Update August 25, 2021

Membership Fees 

DEADLINES 

A big thank you to our Members who paid their membership dues earlier this month. While the majority of Members have paid, we still have some Members with outstanding dues. Planning for the quickly approaching curling season is well underway, and it is imperative that we have final membership and league numbers as soon as possible. Further, we have waitlists for most of our leagues, therefore it is necessary that all teams have four fully paid members. 
 
With that said, we will require all Members to be fully paid by Monday, August 30, 2021 by noon. After this date, a non-refundable late fee of $100 will be added to the fees owing. We recommend that Members reach out to their teammates to ensure everyone has paid their dues! Teams without four paying members will not be allowed on the ice until all four membership dues and any applicable late fees have been paid. Further, teams without four paying members are at risk of forfeiting their spot to the next team on the waitlist as of noon on Monday, August 30, 2021. We encourage all unpaid Members to contact Dalal at 613-234-4119 or This email address is being protected from spambots.

REFUND POLICY

We are once again implementing a cut-off date of September 30, 2021 for members to obtain a full refund. After this date, we cannot guarantee full or partial refunds. This deadline will allow the Board to ensure we have adequate paid memberships to cover our operating costs for the coming year, especially given the fact that there are significant upfront costs incurred early in the season relating to the ice installation and other costs associated with opening the Club.  The deadline also provides us with sufficient time to make final preparations for the season ahead. 

Survey

The Board would like to hear from the Membership regarding your views of a new potential policy that would require Members to be fully vaccinated for the 2021-22 curling season at the Ottawa Curling Club. We would appreciate your participation in this short survey.  This survey is completely anonymous.  

Please complete the survey via the link provided to your email address by end of day on Wednesday, September 1st, 2021. 

Call for Board Nominations 

The Board currently has three positions up for election.  The current Board members sitting in these positions will be putting their names forward for election.  

If you are interested in running for the Board, formal nominations will be accepted in an email format to the club as soon as possible. Two members in good standing can nominate another member in good standing. The nomination letter must be signed by all three and the nominee must agree to stand for election and serve a term of up to three years.

Please send your nominations via email to John Whitaker, Secretary, at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by Sunday, September 5, 2021. 

Membership fee collection for the 2021-22 curling season opens Wednesday, August 4th

Thank you for registering for the upcoming curling season.  From Wednesday, August 4th to Friday, August 13th every member will be required to pay their membership fees in order to secure their spot for the upcoming curling season. 

To provide payment during the collection period, you can pay over the phone via credit card or in-person (by appointment only, no walk-ins, no exceptions).  Please contact Dalal at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or at 613-234-4119 to make your arrangements.

At this time, while gameplay and structure may vary due to health-related protocols, the club expects to operate the traditional leagues for the upcoming curling season. 2021-22 Team Rosters are updated on the website.

Similar to last season, we will be setting a strict cut-off date closer to the start of the season to withdraw from the 2021-22 season with a full refund.  We will still keep our refund policy as open and flexible as possible, while continuing to ensure the financial stability of the Club.

The Board would like to remind you that there is no increase in fees this season. 

Thank you for your continued support!
