Registration: When you arrive, you will be greeted and asked to sign in. You will also be asked to sign a Participant Release form (linked below). Curling, like any sport, comes with some risk. The biggest is the risk of a fall. While falls rarely result in serious injury there are some who choose to wear helmets or other protective headgear to mitigate the risk of a concussion. If you want to wear a helmet or other protective headgear you’re welcome to do so.
