After becoming a fan of curling during the Winter Olympics, he was dismayed to find that there weren't any clubs that were very accessible through public transportation. As a founding member of the Blackstone Valley curling club in Hopedale, MA and joining the established Merrimack Valley Curling Club in Nashua, NH, he learned how different clubs were started and operated and brought that knowledge to Greg Riehle. Their efforts, with the help of other board members this past year have culminated in multiple successful “Learn To Curl” events at Boston's own Steriti Rink in the North End. They hope to grow membership and give the city's residents an opportunity to enjoy the respect, camaraderie, and fun of the great game of curling.
