The Chesapeake Curling Club
The Chesapeake Curling Club was first formed in the winter 1979, after Bill Miller convinced
Nettie Marie Jones that when she donated property to build a skating rink in Easton that a
curling rink should be built alongside it.
With more than 40 members from throughout the Delmarva Peninsula and three sheets of ice,
the Chesapeake Curling Club is located at the
Talbot County Community Center in Easton, Maryland.
It is southern-most curling club in the U.S. with dedicated curling ice.
The Chesapeake Curling Club is a volunteer club and a member of the Grand
National Curling Club, a confederation of 36 curling clubs in the northeastern United States,
and the United States
Curling Association, the national coordinating organization.
The Chesapeake Curling Club provides ice from December to March, hosting three regular
curling
leagues and several open curling sessions throughout the season. Practice ice is available to
club members by making arrangements with the club
president. Instruction is also available to
club members and interested persons.
In addition to its regular activities, the Chesapeake Curling Club hosts teams from across the
country and Canada for tournaments or bonspiels, and members of our club regularly travel to other
clubs in the U.S. and abroad to compete in curling events.
