GCC Skins Open Bonspiel

Welcome to the Garrison Curling Club's premier event, the GCC Skins Open Bonspiel.      

This 2-day bonspiel has teams playing four games over the weekend with more than $3,000 in cash up for grabs. There's a Saturday evening bash featuring a buffet supper and live music.

Teams have their choice of draw times by selecting Draw A or Draw B. We regret if you cannot secure you preferred Group by the time you register.  Unlike other bonspiels where we may guide more competitive or more recreational curlers to a certain group, we don't do that for the skins.

We regret that we do not accept individual registrations (this is a team event). If you are a single or a couple looking to play, please call the office at 403-242-8191 or email us at info@garrisoncurling.com and we will put you on our matchmaking list in the event a team is looking for a player. Teams may have more than the same four curlers play throughout the weekend but registration entitles teams to only 4 seats at the banquet.
