The Palmetto Curling Club is a South Carolina non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization established in 2010 by a few Upstate enthusiasts who envision the distinctive cultural and innovation contribution curling can make to Greenville and the Upstate
In addition, the Palmetto Curling Club is a member of the Grand National Curling Club (“GNCC”), the regional organization overseeing curling on the east coast; through the GNCC, members of the Palmetto Curling Club will be members of the United States Curling Association. To build a Club will take the same engine that has created much of the greatness of the Upstate – collaboration. With this goal in mind, the Palmetto Curling Club looks to forge sporting and volunteer relationships among its members and supporters, so that people in the Upstate can have fun participating in this lifelong sport.
