March 15 - Important Announcement
Club Closure
Fellow Marmora Curlers:
I have a disappointing but necessary announcement to make, the Board of Directors, in an emergency vote has decided to cancel the balance of the curling season and postpone other events until the coronavirus spread has abated.
This was a hard decision; we have taken into account recommendations from local health professionals and the government to practise ‘social distancing before the disease gets completely out of control’. It is unfortunate to shorten the curling season, but, the socially responsible, and healthy decision was required due to the highly contagious nature of the virus.
The end of season banquet will be rescheduled once the situation has improved.
The Special Member’s Meeting to discuss the future of the CVJ will be rescheduled.
Open MIC is cancelled until the situation has improved.
The April Board of Directors meeting is cancelled
Members are requested to clear their lockers and remove locks this coming week. The club will be open on Monday March 16th from 9am to 4pm, Tuesday March 17th from 9am to noon, and Friday March 20th from 5pm to 8pm. Alternate arrangements can be made by contacting one of your board members.
Thank You for understanding this unprecedented action to preserve the health of our members.
Please follow the advice of health officials to safeguard your health.
Respectfully
Neil McQueen
President, MACC
