Antler Curlers
Round 1 is now complete. Round 2 begins next Monday and Wednesday.
Attached are the Monday and Wednesday sheets with round two numbers.
The teams have been split into two groups on each day, with a 6/5 split of teams based on the points obtained in round 1. The 5 team group
will have a bye this round. Watch for the date of your bye. For the third round there will be a 5/6 split with the 5 team group having the bye.
On Monday, four teams ended up with the same number of points in determining which group for placement. the deciding factor was the team had more victories over the other three. This sent two teams to the group of 5.
On Wednesday,. the determining factor for placement had to go to a draw from a hat as the three teams with the same number of points had the same number of victories over each other.
On Monday Team Arnal had a perfect 10 victory round.
Good Curling

<29 Oct 2025> UPDATE : Deer Lodge Curling Club News
Hi Everyone,
I wanted to send you all a VERY exciting update. Through Past President Corey Thompson’s tireless work with the insurance team we have been given the news that we have been approved for a brand-new ice plant fully paid through our insurance claim. The total value of the claim will be over $600,000. The new system is state of the art and will allow our icemaking team to have more control than ever on our ice surface. It is truly a MASSIVE deal and we are all really excited. The roof above the lounge has also been finished, which is less visible but also extremely important and was done with the support of our great membership. I want to also make sure to take a second to thank our icemaking team Brandon and Sean. Not only did they rush to get our season back on track, but they have done numerous other jobs to keep our building up and running. Big thanks to them. As always there are still things to improve upon at the club, but we wanted to make sure to share this big win with our curlers! See you on the ice.
On behalf of the Board:
Scott Peterson
President

<02Aug2025> Antlers 2025-26 Registration
From Wayne.......Fellow Curlers!
Attached are two new curling application forms, the team application form and
the individual application form.
Slightly Revised for spelling error 12 Sep
click/tap on ... Registration Form
The Team Application Form:
For those who would like to register their players all together (and use one cheque)
this is the form to use. If your team is planning to curl only one day only one form is required.
If your team is planning to curl both days and there are no changes in personnel one
form will do it.
If your team is planning to curl both days and there are changes in personnel, you will
need to submit a second copy of this form with the new personnel. If any of the new personnel
are new members they will have additional fees to cover MCA ($13), banquet($25),
builder($20) and extras($13) for a total of $70. Two banquets would make it $100.
The Individual Application Form
For those who are used to registering by themselves this the form to use.
A cheque (postdated to October 1st) must accompany the application form. Applications
received by September 15, 2025 will receive first priority of placement
FEE INCREASE
As you can see from the fees, we have a $15 or 5% fee increase to cover added expenses
expected this year. We know that the CCA fee is increasing from $10 to $13,
food costs have risen so the banquet cost will rise and ice fees are are anticipated to rise
at least 3%. Hopefully we will be able to offset any additional costs with our surplus from
last year and our 50/50.
Your fees include: two luncheons Christmas and Windup. There will be an additional fee
collected at the door
Definition of a MEMBER: A Curler that has registered to play full time for a team

<05Apr2025> WCCA Daytime Curling Club Championship
News from Tim Will:
We sent a mens team to what used to be called City Seniors now called WCCA Daytime Curling Club Championship.
The team was made up of Antlers.
- Skip Marc Arnal
- 3 rd Harold Shuster
- 2nd Danny Ansew
- lead Gerry Arnal
- 5 th Ian Willows
- 6 th Bob Gill
In round robin play they finished 2 wins 1 loss and finished first in their division. Qualified for playoffs. I can not remember last time Antlers made playoffs. It would go back pre covid and then some. Unfortunately they lost the semi final but thank you for doing Antlers proud.
As a footnote this event will be hosted at DLCC next year.

Call For Volunteers
The DLCC cannot operate without the help of volunteers, and as the saying goes - "many hands makes light work". If you are interested in helping out and giving back to the club, even if it's for a very small time commitment, we would love to hear from you.
<25Feb2025> Raise The Roof Campaign
Prior to our draw on Monday Feb 14 Ian Mahon announced “The Raise the Roof Campaign” being taken on by DLCC.
Following are some highlights and a link to more info :
OUR GOAL
The total roof replacement cost is estimated at $275,000 for both the clubhouse and arena roof. We already have secured $75,000 from the Province through a Grant. The Raise the Roof committee has set the target to raise the remaining $200,000 on our own through this campaign. There are a few other Grant opportunities we are still actively pursuing, (and we have a dedicated team looking into these), but their success is not guaranteed. We truly will need the support of the membership to get this project off the ground! Please consider donating and ensuring the long-term future of our club.
DONATIONS
The Deer Lodge Curling Club is proud to be a project of the National Sport Trust Fund (NSTF) which is a program of the Canadian Council of Provincial and Territorial Sport Federations Inc. (CCPTSF) and administered provincially by Sport Manitoba. CCPTSF has the ability to issue charitable tax receipts for any qualifying donations received in support of programs that support the development of amateur sport on a National level, of which our “Raise the Roof” project is a natural fit. To support the campaign, please visit the DLCC website and access the Raise the Roof page.

<14Feb2025> Prize Round
As the Wednesday and Monday schedules move into Round 3 aka “The Prize Round” this
is a reminder that this round determines, by points the Aggregate
winner and second place teams in each day which proceed
to the Club Championship playoff.
The Group A and B winners in Wednesday and Monday are determined by the most wins in this round, excluding the Aggregate winner should that team win the Club Championship.
In the event there are multiple winners, the winner will be
determined by which team won over the other in the final round.
If this process does not declare the Winner, the team with the
most number of accumulated points will be declared the winner.
If this process does not declare the Winner, playoff games will
be scheduled with spares allowed.
Spares are allowed for the Club Championship teams under the following rule.
A team must have at least TWO REGULAR members to compete in any season end
playoff games. Spares must meet the following conditions:
1) Spare(s) must be an Antler member(s) and are not member of a team involved
in the Club Championships playoff games
2) All spares will play lead or lead/second (if two spares are needed.)
<13Feb2025> Wednesday Round 3 Schedule
Wednesday Round 3 starts Febuary 19.
New team numbers have been assigned based on total points earned in the first and second rounds. Since there are 11 teams, the third round will have a 5/6 split with the A group having a bye team. The B Group had a bye last round.
The schedule is now available on the website.
