1 Burlington Curling Club 2295 New Street, Burlington, ON Telephone: Website: Club Manager: Brian Moore The Burlington Curling Club was established in 1952 and has offered curling at the corner of New Street and Seneca Avenue since that time.

We are a member owned club that is managed by an elected Board of Directors. The current Board consists of a President, Vice-President and seven members at large representing a cross section of our membership. Clinics are offered with qualified instructors for new curlers wishing to learn the sport. The BCC has a reputation for producing quality curlers.
