Ed Werenich GOLDEN WRENCH CLASSIC - Jan 19-22

Starting today, our Club will be hosting the annual Golden Wrench Classic.  Come down to the Club, support our club teams, and watch some great competitive curling live!  Full event tickets (all 4 days) can be purchased for $25 or buy a daily pass at the door for $10.  Local teams include:  
   Darryl HORSMAN, Mike Greenberg, Eric Kowal, Brian Patrick
   Nils JOHANNSON, Gary McKnight, Bert Fredericksen, Travis Gaddie
   Mike SIGGINS, Bob LeClair, Tom Danielson, Jeff Baird  


$10,000 Raffle Update - Deadline is Feb-4-2017!

We have distributed or sold 1,790 of the 2,000 tickets available.  To date, $3,790 dollars (representing 379 tickets) have been turned in.  I am confident that many more tickets have been sold and, with only 17 days left until the drawing at half-time on Super Bowl Sunday, I encourage you to return all the tickets and sales proceeds to myself (Greg Gallagher) or someone on the Budget Committee (Carol Ann Naso or Brian Cristall) as soon as possible – and absolutely no later than Feb 4th, 2017.  You can also leave tickets and proceeds at the Bar at the Club in an envelope with Greg Gallagher's or the Budget Committee’s name on it.
 
If you have any tickets that you cannot sell, please come to the Club this weekend (Golden Wrench from Jan 19 – 22) and try to sell them there – we are expecting record crowds again this year!  Alternatively, you can return unsold tickets to Brian Cristall – he will be at the Club all day Saturday (Jan 21) starting at 9am and will attempt to sell them to the crowds of viewers.  If you cannot get to the Club on Saturday, please call or e-mail (greg@benderassoc.com) me immediately and we can make arrangements to get the tickets turned back in.  If you do not turn them back in, it will be assumed that you will have sold them and will be responsible for the tickets and proceeds.
 
Many of you may not excel at selling raffle tickets or Girl Scout cookies!  But this is one avenue to generate funds for your curling club that benefit you – reduce league fees, improve the quality of our ice house, improve the look of our warm room, allow us to lower the cost of our beverages behind the bar, and help pay off our debt.  Sell a ticket – gift a ticket – buy a ticket – support the Coyotes Curling Club! You can buy tickets from any board member or Carol Ann Naso, Brian Cristall, me or someone behind the bar.  Thanks for your support!  ... Greg Gallagher, Raffle Chairman - 480-861-8613

Tips from the Ice

Is your gripper clean???

Do you know where a large portion of the debris that winds up on the ice comes from?  The inside of our gripper.  Next time you grab your curling shoes take off your gripper and have a look inside.  You will find debris that falls onto the ice or sticks to your slider and is often left on the ice.  Make sure you clean the inside of your gripper before your step onto the ice.  And remember to get a new gripper if your old one is showing wear.  Grippers should be changed out almost every year as they will start to leave bits on the ice as they get old.  If you need a new one, head into the Pro Shop.  Beki has the place fully stocked!!!
