Fairbanks eager to host 2017 Club Nationals
By Denise Kamm, Manager, FCC
ty lucky teams will make their way up to Fair- banks for a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will include world-class curling! What is it like in Fairbanks in March? For
T
starters, yes, it will still be cold. It will likely be in the 20s for highs and around 0 for the lows. Of course, that’s if it’s a warm year! Daylight will be what most people are used to in the Lower 48, with sunrise in the 7 a.m. hour and sunset in the 6 p.m. hour. While in Fairbanks, what is there to do? Te folks in Fairbanks are planning some side excursions for you to soak in the healing wa- ters of the Chena Hot Springs, view the Aurora Borealis, and to go dog mushing! All this and curling? Fairbanks is practically heaven. Club Nationals 2017 is March 4-11, with prac-
tice scheduled on Friday, March 3. Come on up a day early, and participate in these Fairbanks excursions before curling in the USA’s northern- most curling club. Hurry hard to earn your spot! For updates on Club Nationals, be sure to
