As the 2010 US Curling National Championships get closer and closer (less than a week away!!), we’re finding just a little more attention from the outside world. There is an article in today’s Kalamazoo Gazette which talks about how it came to be that the Nationals found a 2010 home in Kalamazoo.

Great article in today’s Kalamazoo Gazette about Dean Gemmel, who left Kalamazoo in 2007. Gemmel will be returning to Kalamazoo in March to participate in the 2010 US Curling National Championships. Among other things, Dean is the host of the Curling Show, a podcast devoted to the sport.

Tune in to 89.1 FM TODAY during the noon hour for a conversation with the vice president (“vice skip,” as we like to say around here) regarding the Kalamazoo Curling Club, the 2010 Curling Nationals, the Olympics and all things curling. If you miss it, just check back later on the Nonchalant Café Hour’s web site, where you’ll more than likely be able to hear it again at your leisure.

When the Kalamazoo Curling Club was just trying to get its legs, Greg Eigner was more than willing to help out. He and his family made the trip to Kalamazoo from Fort Wayne, Indiana in the midst of a blizzard to help out with our first learn-to-curl sessions. Since then he’s been a card-carrying member of the club, even with the big distance between Fort Wayne and Kalamazoo. The Fort Wayne Journal Gazette just ran this article about him in this past Sunday’s newspaper (could have been front page news if not for those Colts!).

March 6 is Go Curling Day in Michigan!

Now, we’ll be among the first to admit that our government has much better things to be doing with their time than to spend any amount of energy discussing curling on the floor of the Michigan legislature. There’s a 2 billion dollar deficit and high unemployment to worry about — c’mon people!! That being said, it sure is neat that March 6, 2010 has been declared “Go Curling Day” in Michigan. Sound too crazy to be true? Read the proclamation yourself!
