Club History

The Chilliwack Curling Club was formed in 1952. Prior to this, members traveled to Vancouver Curling Club to play their games.
After selling $50.00 debentures in the Club, the current building was constructed in 1952, with the help of CFB Chilliwack, as a three-sheet Curling Club. The Club flourished one more sheet was added in 1953. In 1961, the original club was demolished and a 6-sheet club was built on the original site. During the 1960's many bonspiels were so big the Coliseum next door was utilized many times. In 1988 the Club once again expanded to include a larger lounge and dance floor upstairs as well as locker rooms, offices, and an eating area downstairs. In July 2017 the City of Chilliwack committed funding for a new 8-sheet Curling Club and Community Centre which opened in November 2018.
Our Club has hosted many regional, provincial, and national championships through the years. Our biggest accomplishment happened in November 2006 with the hosting of the Continental Cup of Curling bringing the twelve best teams from North America and Europe together for four days of competition at Prospera Centre.
The Chilliwack Curling Club has approximately 650 active members curling regularly in leagues and approximately 1500 shareholders. The Club requires all curlers that curl at night, when the lounge is open, to buy a share in the Chilliwack Curling Club. This is a one-time-only fee that allows shareholders to vote on all matters at general meetings including selecting a Board of Directors.
