Waterloo, Canada KW Granite Club Full time

**About the KW Granite Club**

The first recorded curling game in Canada took place in 1871 near Quebec City and 11 years later the game reached Kitchener-Waterloo. The Waterloo Curling Club organized in 1882 on a rink on Peppler Street, while the Kitchener Club started operations on Gaukle Street 1 year later. The K-W Granite Club was established by an amalgamation of the 2 Clubs in 1927.

The Club took possession of its newest location on August 1st, 2003, and with a spectacular volunteer effort, “Rink In The Park” was ready for Open House and Curling in mid September. The first season tents were used as change rooms but there was warmth on the way. During the summer of 2004, thanks to a stellar fundraising effort and long hours from staff and volunteers, a new lounge and change rooms were added at a cost exceeding $300,000.

Along the way The K-W Granite Club has hosted or co-hosted a number of high-profile curling events. The World Junior Championships were held in 1980, The Brier in 1962 and 1986, The Scott Tournament of Hearts in 1994 and 2003 and the Canadian Mixed Championships in 1969 and 1975. Most recently the Club hosted the sold out 2004 M&M Meat Shops $100,000 Skins Game.

Our new home at Rink In The Park has brought renewed enjoyment and enthusiasm for the growing number of curlers in our community
