Trisan Mass Vaccination Volunteers needed. Also sent by email March 29 2021
The Trisan center is being turned into Covid-19 vaccination center as quickly as April 6th. As the opportunity for vaccination continues to grow Trisan has been targeted by York region as an optimum location for this important endeavour.
The Vaccination Clinic at the Trisan Centre would increase accessibility to the vaccines for our residents and nearby communities. The benefits of vaccination and the knowledge of the accessibility of the vaccine are immeasurable as the pandemic must be brought to heel so that life and the economy can resume. To date in York Region, only King and Whitchurch-Stouffville are working towards private public partnership clinics.
For our purposes, King Curling Club has been approached to help supply volunteers to assist with the ongoing operation of the clinic for the following:
- coordinating roles ie greeters, traffic directors, screeners
- "runners" for the healthcare workers eg to obtain supplies from the coolers
- to begin as early as April 6, pending vaccine availability, for a period of up to 4 months
- ideally working for 1/2 day shifts, either morning or afternoon
- daily requirement for volunteers is 12 persons in addition to 12 healthcare professionals
- all necessary training and safety protocol will be provided to volunteers
As this is a personal decision that each member of KCC must make for themselves and this venture is not tied to any KCC role or support we ask that you contact the mayor’s office directly should you wish to support this venture at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. We truly hope that the Trisan Center Vaccination efforts will provide a positive impact on our community and the city as whole.
Good health to all means a higher possibility of a return to curl come fall.

King Curling Club Update
All members
As we now approach the end of the season, unfortunately without one rock being thrown, your board is focused on the 2021/2022 season. Plans are already in place for a return to curl and the continuation of all our leagues and favorite events.
We are also looking at some potential lead up events so that we can once again have all the social and curling fun that you have come to expect from King Curling Club. We will be communicating more on all this in the coming weeks and look forward to seeing everyone again soon.
King Curling Club would like to acknowledge and congratulate Mark Inglis and Peter Wasylkwi as both of their daughters reached the Canadian National level of curling this season. Danielle Inglis was the 5th alternate for Team Ontario (Rachel Homan) at the Scotties Tournament of Hearts where the team earned a very impressive Silver place finish. Congratulations Danielle!
Lauren Wasylkiw will be representing Ontario at the Canadian Mixed Doubles Championships with her partner Shane Koning. This prestigious event begins March 18 and will be televised on TSN. Good luck Lauren!
Update October 16 part 2
We are looking into the current change to a modified phase 2 for Covid 19 in York region and its implication to KCC
UPDATE OCTOBER 16 2020
Our president Dave has sent out an email to all members please review as action is required.
Those who have already registered
"you now will need to go back into the registration system, make adjustments and confirm your leagues by providing full payment."
"If you have decided not to curl, please delete your league selections."
Please review the complete email for more details.
We look forward to seeing everyone playing in the coming weeks.
UPDATE SEPTEMBER 23 2020
If you are considering returning this is the time to do register. Please keep an eye on your email as we will be sending out more information on specifics on leagues in the coming days.
It is also important to recognize that King Curling Club will be following Curl Canada guidlines that are in line with provincial health regulations. These recommendations are that any curling member register with only ONE active curling club at this time. This means that if you curl at multiple locations you are to select only one. This will be revisited by the board and any changes to the recommendations from both Curl Canada and the Province will be updated and followed moving into the 2021.

Registration is going really well. Were excited to see everyone returning to KCC. Please make sure to sign up early as this will help up in our ongoing talks with the Township,
As part of the return to curl procedures it is unlikely that equipment will NOT be available for shared use. If you use club equipment please take this opportunity to purchase some equipment for your own private use. Please click HERE for a flyer that has been provided to us by Goldline.
