<20Dec2022> Antlers Christmas Luncheon Minutes
This year's Christmas Luncheon took place on Dec19 attended by 57 members.
The tasty meal served up by Willy and his staff at 12:30 included Salisbury House's chili, Texas toast, grated cheese, sour cream, hot sauces, Caesar salad with croutons, cheese cake and coffee.
After most had moved on to dessert, the first formal order of business was for Bryan Crandell to announce the winning ticket number for the day's scheduled 50/50 draw. Doug Bauer was the lucky ticket holder.
Our Treasurer, Hart Kapitoler was next up and presented a report of our financial status. Our league should finish the season in a healthy position going into next season.
Drawmaster Wayne Young called upon this year's new club members to come forward to receive their name badges.
Wayne also raised a motion to change our end of season championship playoffs as we no longer have a Friday session. The proposal was to have the top two point leaders for the season from each of Monday and Wednesday sessions playoff for the title. The semi final would see Monday 1st place points leader play Wednesday 2nd place, while Wednesday 1st takes on Monday 2nd. The winners would play for the league championship. The motion was passed by a show of hands.
Wayne then asked that teams review their wins and losses on the big score board (and website) so that teams will be ceded properly for the second round of curling. Each day will be divided into a “A” group and “B” group for round robin play.
Reg Sims was the last up to the microphone. He extended seasons greetings from the DLCC Board.
Special thanks go to Antlers board director Harold Shuster for organizing this year's event and to Brandon and his bar staff for their usual excellent service.

appear on the spare list, let Bryan know the day you would be able to spare.

<28Aug2022> Antlers Curling Update for the 2022-2023 Season
Applications to curl in the Antlers League for the 2022-23 season are now available, click/tap on ... Registration Form
We finally received our Ice Rental Contract from the Deer Lodge Curling Club.
Like most Curling Clubs, Deer Lodge suffered significant losses last year due to
COVID (decreased participation) and inflationary increases. The club has had to increase ice rates which in turned are reflected in our Antlers rates.
President Bob Pattie noted in a email to last years members that we have checked with a couple of other Curling clubs and our fees are comparable. In the process of our budget adjustments sadly one item impacted was the down sizing of the Christmas and Windup banquets this year.
On a brighter note Bob announced that we have two new board members this year. Tim Will is our new Vice President and Harold Shuster has stepped forward to join the board.
We look forward to receiving your application for Antlers curling this winter.
<14Apr2022> Annual Meeting and Luncheon
The Antlers Annual Meeting and Windup Luncheon took place on Monday April 11th.
Doors opened at 11 am with 52 in attendance.
President Bob Pattie called the meeting to order at 11:30 am.
Meeting Highlights
1. Reg Sims (also a member DLCC Board) was first up to speak starting with thanks from the DLCC Board for our league's ongoing support.
The major activity currently over the last 14 months has involved making a change to the constitution of DLCC. The original business designation left us ineligible for a number of available grants to help operate and enhance the club. Because DLCC was incorporated via an act by the Province of MB, change required that it had to be done through another act. A bill to change the act is scheduled for approval this fall. Reg did not get any followup questions.
2. There was a question from the audience about the availability of applications to curl next season. Bob responded that the applications are normally available at the Annual Meeting but have been delayed because DLCC has not informed our league about the ice rates for next season. Reg commented that ice rates should be out soon. Members will be informed re applications via email and our website.
3. A motion was raised by Tim Will to modify the rules for spares required for season end playoffs. The current rule (see League Format section B point 4) limits selection to players from the group day represented by the team (eg Friday teams can only pick from Friday members). This rule originally was set to keep from stacking teams. Friday only had 4 teams in total this season so spare selection was an issue. There was a vote by show of hands with most in the audience in support so the motion passed.
4. Bob Pattie identified that the operation of the Friday group with only 4 teams will not continue next season unless we can recruit more teams for that group. Playing the same 3 teams 7 times over the season is limiting competition.
5. Bob Pattie announced that he has been President of the Antlers League for 8 years now and will only serve for one more. He asked for someone to step forward and serve as 1st Vice President for the 2022-23 season to learn the President's role.
Curling prizes
The curling trophies and cash prizes were handed out. See the Photo Galley page on our website for the trophy winners.
Luncheon.
The meal of caesar salad, garlic toast and 2 variations of spaghetti prepared by Willy and his staff was delicious and topped off with tasty desserts.
