GMCC 2008 Survery

GMCC members, In a effort to get your opinions on a variety of topics, we've put together a survey at the following link:  http://gmcc.yoursurvey.sgizmo.com/

We really care what you think, so please take the time to give us a piece of your mind.  All your responses will remain anonymous.

New calendar web page - and other changes to the website

If you have been here before, you'll notice that we've changed the design of the site a bit. Part of the reason was to make the sidebars a bit wider. I also added the left sidebar with the list of actions at the top. Comments and opinions are definitely welcome - please feel free to leave them as comments to this post, or email me directly.

We also have a new Calendar of Events page thanks to Rich noticing that Google Calendars lets us embed the calendar in web pages. Comments and feedback on that are also welcome.

Finally, to make it easy to give out an address to people, I've made some "easy" addresses that are specific pages:

Again, any and all comments are welcome.

Facebook users - come join the GMCC Facebook group!

If any of you are Facebook users, I have created a Green Mountain Curling Club group inside of Facebook which you are welcome to join. (Please do!)  I'll be honest and say I'm not entirely sure yet what we'll be doing with the group besides cross-posting notices about upcoming GMCC events, but it seemed like something interesting to experiment with as yet another way to get the word out about the GMCC. If you are a Facebook user interested in curling in Vermont, please do join in and help spread the word!

Learn to Curl clinic for Dec 2nd now full!

Wow!  We've had a great response from the Burlington Free Press article with lots of folks interested in coming to the Learn-To-Curl clinic tomorrow.  Unfortunately, we've had so many responses that we've filled up all available slots for tomorrow's session.

However, you can still try out curling this season... we run these Learn-To-Curl clinics on the first Saturday of each month, so there will be two more this season: January 6th and February 3rd.  If you are interested in attending either of those dates, please do send an email in to greenmountaincurlingclub@gmail.com.  (Given the interest we're seeing, I would suggest sending in a message as soon as you are sure you can attend so that a spot can be reserved for you.)

Please take our survey about curling in Vermont!

We need your help!  We are currently exploring an option to offer weekend curling this coming season at an ice arena in Morrisville, VT.  In order to determine if we can make this work, we need to collect information about the level of interest in and commitment to curling in Vermont. PLEASE take a few minutes to answer our survey:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.asp?u=894542051780

PLEASE PASS THIS LINK ALONG TO ANYONE YOU KNOW WHO MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN CURLING IN VERMONT!   

The more responses we receive, the stronger the probability that we can make curling available this year in Vermont!  Thank you.

Join the new mailing lists to stay in touch with the GMCC!

We are pleased to announce two new mailing lists to which you can subscribe in order to stay in touch with GMCC activities.  The first list, 'gmcc-announce', is an announcements-only mailing list to which we will only send occasional announcements about upcoming events or other activities of the club.  You can subscribe to this list by visiting the following URL:

http://groups.google.com/group/gmcc-announce

Only the GMCC leadership can post to the list, but anyone can subscribe, and the archives of the list are available for viewing from that URL.

We also have set up a second list, 'gmcc-discuss', that is open for general discussion about the GMCC and curling in Vermont.  Anyone who joins the list may post to it and we hope it becomes a useful way to stay in touch among people interested in curling within Vermont.  To subscribe, visit:

http://groups.google.com/group/gmcc-discuss

An archive of the list is also available at that URL.  Please feel free to join one or both lists and we look forward to a new way to stay in touch with you all.

Please note that comments and trackbacks are unfortunately moderated

Welcome to our new site.  Please note that if you want to leave a comment here to any of the entries, we have unfortunately had to moderate comments and trackbacks due to spammers who are using comments to increase their search engine rankings.  Please do leave comments... we will still post them, but after you submit a comment a human (me) has to approve them first so that we do not wind up being a billboard for various (usually questionable) products and services.  So there may be a slight delay while I get notified of a comment and then approve it, but please know we will post your comments.

About the GMCC

  • The Green Mountain Curling Club is a group of curling players and fans bringing curling into the state of Vermont. In previous years, we curled at the Border Curling Club just over the border in Stanstead, Quebec, but in 2006 we were very pleased to be bringing curling to the CREW ice arena in Morrisville, VT! Now we are back for our second season with more sheets, more stones, more teams and are looking forward to an even stronger year of curling in Vermont!

    Participation in our monthly "Learn To Curl" clinics is open to anyone. No experience is necessary - just an interest in learning and playing the game. Cost for the clinic is $25, which can be applied toward your membership if you decide to join the GMCC.

    If you would like to become a member of the GMCC, current rates are $75/season with membership giving you the ability to participate in GMCC activities, free equipment rental and, if necessary, a Learn To Curl clinic. PLEASE FILL OUT OUR MEMBERSHIP FORM to join.

    To play in our Saturday morning games, you must be a member and then there is a small $10/game fee to cover the cost of the ice time.

    If you have questions about the GMCC in general, please contact gmccwebmaster@gmail.com.
