En ce qui concerne la saison 2016-2017, je m’attarderai surtout à nos championnats provinciaux, laissant à notre directeur-général le soin de faire le bilan de l’ensemble des réalisations et des initiatives de la fédération. Merci d’abord à tous les comités hôte et à tous les bénévoles qui ont contribué à donner à nos compétiteurs le meilleur environnement possible. Il faut souligner les premiers championnats U18 à Brownsburg et des Colts à Glenmore ainsi que le mixte à La Sarre, une première pour ce club. Sept-Iles a connu un franc succès avec les maîtres, apportant encore une fois leur soutien à leur club et leur fédération. Enfin, les championnats Tankard WFG et Scotties tenus à Lévis ont vu près de 7 000 amateurs se déplacer pour encourager nos élites. Nous avons profité de ces championnats à Lévis pour combler une partie du retard au sein de notre Temple de la renommée en y intronisant tous ceux et celles qui étaient membres du temple canadien dans la catégorie des joueurs. Nous poursuivrons cette année avec la catégorie des bâtisseurs. Enfin, l’ouverture prochaine des nouveaux clubs de Chelsea et de Rivière-du-Loup apportera un nouveau dynamisme au sein de leur région. J’aimerais remercier les employés de la permanence pour avoir su mettre de l’avant de nouvelles initiatives qui ont été de belles réussites et d’avoir relevé le défi de voir à l’organisation de plus de trente compétitions. Finalement, un profond merci à Pierre Fellice et Serge Brazeau, mes collègues du conseil qui quittent leurs fonctions, pour leur dévouement, leur collaboration, leur disponibilité et leur soutien indéfectible. Mais ce dont je suis le plus fier après ces huit ans comme président, c’est d’avoir contribué à rendre la présence de Curling Québec plus concrète et plus positive pour les clubs et les associations régionales et pas seulement pour les championnats provinciaux. D’avoir contribué à changer la perception largement répandue que CQ n’existait que pour les élites et les championnats alors que la fédération vous offre un large éventail de programmes et de services. D’avoir contribué à une plus grande transparence de nos finances. D’avoir contribué à la revalorisation et la reconnaissance de nos bénévoles et de nos anciennes élites, même s’il y a encore beaucoup de chemin à parcourir. D’avoir contribué à ce que la présence de CQ au sein de Curling Canada soit plus réelle et importante. Merci à Elaine de Ryk de nous avoir si bien représenté et à Cathy Hughes de prendre le relai. Au fil des ans, j’ai parcouru le Québec de long en large et partout, j’y ai rencontré des gens passionnés, dévoués et très attachés à leur club. Merci à tous de continuer à contribuer au développement du curling dans votre club, votre région. Au cours de l’année qui vient, j’agirai comme président sortant afin d’assurer la continuité au sein du conseil d’administration. La fédération se trouve à la croisée des chemins. En bonne santé financière, elle verra ses subventions être réduites au cours des prochaines années et devra se trouver d’autres sources de revenus, d’autant plus que la participation aux championnats diminue aussi. Il appartiendra au nouveau conseil, de concert avec la permanence, d’élaborer des pistes de solution. Curling Québec aura aussi besoin d’un nouveau bassin de bénévoles pour jeter un regard nouveau sur l’ensemble de ses activités. Mais il s’agira aussi pour les clubs et les associations régionales de revoir leurs façons de faire et d’être prêts à poursuivre la tâche de rendre le curling encore plus accessible. Quels beaux défis! Jean Lamère 4 Rapport annuel 2016-2017 Mot du directeur général Toute l’équipe de Curling Québec a connu une autre année extrêmement chargée en 2016-17 et je souhaite en premier lieu féliciter les employés permanents de la fédération pour leur professionnalisme, leur créativité et leur désir insatiable de toujours se dépasser. Un merci également tout à fait spécial aux membres du conseil d’administration qui collaborent et contribuent constamment de façon remarquable et qui font preuve d’une disponibilité sans limite. Nous pouvons aussi compter à chaque année sur l’appui et le support de nombreux autres collaborateurs précieux pour divers projets spéciaux et leur apport est extrêmement apprécié. Nous croyons beaucoup en l’importance d’avoir une fédération dynamique qui s’implique directement dans le développement et la croissance du sport. Notre équipe compte désormais une nouvelle ressource (Chantal Cormier) qui se consacre exclusivement au financement de la fédération par l’entremise du programme Placements Sports et au développement d’outils pour les clubs qui souhaitent améliorer leur mode de gestion. Curling Québec propose donc dorénavant une offre de programmes et services extrêmement variés à ses membres notamment en ce qui a trait au recrutement, à l’initiation, à la formation et à la gestion des clubs. Nous n’avons pas pour autant délaissé l’organisation de tournois et de championnats puisque nous avons sanctionné et collaboré à la présentation de plus d’une centaine d’événements sur les glaces. Tout cela serait évidemment impossible à réaliser sans la collaboration et l’appui de nombreux comités et clubs hôtes et nous les remercions tous et toutes très chaleureusement. Finalement, nous avons continué à améliorer et à diversifier nos outils de communications pour tenter de rejoindre le plus de gens possible : nouveau site internet, courriel hebdomadaire, présence accrue dans les médias sociaux, participation à des activités spéciales (salon de la femme, Curling en lumières), etc. Notre sport n’a jamais suscité autant de curiosité et d’intérêt et de magnifiques opportunités s’offriront aux clubs dans le futur. La prochaine saison s’annonce extrêmement intéressante notamment avec la présentation d’un championnat canadien au Québec et de la présentation de deux épreuves de curling aux jeux olympiques d’hiver 2018. C’est donc avec fierté que nous vous présentons le bilan de notre dernière saison. Nous travaillons déjà à la préparation de la prochaine année et soyez assurés que nous continuerons à innover et à nous dépasser pour travailler de concert avec vous à assurer la pérennité du curling.

  • September 2018 Mark Your Calendars!
    Welcome back everyone for another great year of curling! Chair’s Report - September 2018 Welcome Back!!! It was great to see everyone at our Member's Social Night last Thursday, it is great to get caught up with curling friends, and kick off an exciting new season. If you are a new curler or just new to our club, Welcome! We hope that you will enjoy the fun and friendly atmosphere here at the Granite! Besides league play, there are several social-curling events to take part in. There are curling clinics; mini-spiels hosted by the Women's section that includes instruction; and the very popular Hospitality Bonspiel in November hosted by the Friday Mixed Recreational section. If you are a novice curler that would like to improve your curling abilities, please consider joining a team in one of the competitive sections. Playing against experienced curlers is a great way to become more involved in the strategy and enhance your level of skill. If this would appeal to you, give your name to our Club Manager, Freda Braker, and if a team is looking for a player, she can put both parties in touch with each other. The afternoon and evening Open House dates of October 9, 10, & 11 will have practice ice available. We will once again have the addition of a Public Open House on Saturday, October 13. This date will be for potential new members only so bring your non-curling friends out to get on the ice and throwing some rocks! Pre-registration is recommended for this Public Open House.
