C.O.W. #2008-116 DEPUTATION Paul Olsen, Schomberg Curling Club Re: Schomberg and Nobleton Curling Clubs - Securing a curling facility in King Township Mr. Olsen spoke on behalf of the Schomberg and Nobleton Curling Clubs and distributed a copy of his brief to Council and Staff. Mr. Olsen commented that The Lions’ Clubs had conducted a feasibility study which was presented to Council in June 2004 coupled with a Master Parks and Recreation Plan which identified that a dedicated curling facility was needed in the Township. He advised that curling has a long history in the Township and is currently being played in the two hockey arenas which are less than ideal for a number of reasons. Mr. Olsen commented that this is a fast growing sport with international recognition but cannot grow in King because of the limiting factors associated with curling on hockey ice. Mr. Olsen reported that many of the curlers have to drive outside the Township to municipalities which have proper curling facilities.
