# Event Details - **Event Name**: Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026 - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 06:00 pm – Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm (-05:00) - **Event Description**: LEARN TO CURL CLINICS: Are you curious about curling and looking for a way to give it a try? All are welcome at our Learn to Curl Clinics! No experience or special equipment is required, and below, you’ll find some helpful videos for understanding the basics of the sport. The Learn to Curl sessions are ideal for those who have never tried the sport before, but are curious to learn the basics. All are welcome! Curling is a “lifetime” sport for people of all ages and abilities. We can also accommodate wheelchair curlers and those who may not be as flexible as they once were with “stick” curling. We love for kids to try curling! Because it takes a certain amount of strength to slide the 42-pound granite stones down the ice, kids about 9 years and up are generally able to participate. What to expect during the sessions: There will be a brief off ice instruction including curling terminology. Once one the ice, instructors will go over the basics of curling, including throwing a stone and sweeping. At the end of the session, you’ll have the opportunity to put your new lessons to use in a short game with other clinic attendees. Participants are urged to wear layered, loose clothing and clean sneakers. All other equipment is provided. A Learn to Curl clinic includes: 30 minutes of classroom instruction to go over terminology, ice safety, rules and dynamic warm up 1 1/2 hours of ice time Instruction on how to deliver the stone, how to sweep, and basic strategy A two- or three-end game (as many as time allows) Clothing Dress in layers. The arena temperature is about 45-50 degrees. You’ll be standing on ice for two hours. If you normally wear a hat outside, you’ll probably want to wear one while curling as well. Clothing should allow freedom of movement. You need to be able to squat and lunge (blue jeans are not recommended since your movement is restricted). Lightweight gloves keep your hands warm while still allowing you to feel the stone. Please bring a pair of clean athletic shoes with soft rubber soles for maximum grip. Avoid shoes with metal on top or inside, such as steel-toed boots. If it’s your first time on the ice in a while, or if your feet tend to get cold, consider wearing two pairs of socks. All other equipment will be provided by the club! - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/alexandria/learn-to-curl-clinics-and-open-house-2026/200030675935615 - **Event Categories**: sports, kids - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 7 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Alexandria - **state**: MN - **country**: United States - **location**: 802 3rd Ave W, Alexandria, MN, United States, Minnesota 56308 - **lat**: 45.89109 - **long**: -95.39028 - **full address**: 802 3rd Ave W, Alexandria, MN, United States, Minnesota 56308 ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026 - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/361781a6860e1cd9b396f867abd34d9484bdd0884f8af1d43f064c986f0f79d9-rimg-w1200-h1200-dce8e8e8-gmir?v=1788878835 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026 being held? - **A:** Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026 takes place on Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Wed, 21 Oct, 2026 at 08:00 pm at 802 3rd Ave W, Alexandria, MN, United States, Minnesota 56308. - **Q**: Who is organizing Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026? - **A:** Learn to Curl Clinics and Open House - 2026 is organized by Vikingland Curling Club. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
