The weekend draw has been posted HERE.
Bonspiel Format
Men's, women's and mixed teams are welcome to register. 8-end games with a three-game guarantee. Teams will be seeded in the A, B or C event based on wins/losses. The winner of the A-Event will take home the $1,000 grand prize, courtesy of our Rainbow Sponsor, Carlin Koster Real Estate.
Raffles
This year will feature more 50/50 draws and a raffle table full of items donated by local businesses.
Toonie Hog Pot
Bring your toonies for a chance to win the Toonie Hog Pot if you hog one or more rocks during your game. Last year’s winner took home over $50.

Friday Night Karaoke Party
We are bringing sexy back with our Friday night karaoke party with well known host Catherine from Backlot and Twisted, sponsored by TD Bank.
Saturday Meal Banquet
Included with your registration, we will feast together before the evening’s activities.
Saturday Night Quick Drag and Runway Show
Hosted by local drag performer, Tana Nuff, teams will choose (or force) one of their teammates to be made over in a classic quick drag challenge. Creating fierce and spicy looks, each team will be provided with ‘drag bags’ full of makeover essentials and will have access to the drag swag supplies table. Each team will race against the clock to create what may become Canada’s next drag superstar (but probably not).
Each team’s queen will then walk the runway to showcase their look.
Throughout the evening Tana Nuff will entertaint us with her performances, so bring your cash and support our local drag community.
We’re so excited to be hosting Calgary’s LGBTQ+ curling community for what is sure to be a weekend full of fun and likely a lot of pink feather boas, and we can’t wait to see you all again.
