Inside Curling with Kevin Martin & Jim Jerome30 Maj 2023

What Makes A Successful Club ft. Bob Popil & Jill Price

The guys are joined by Bob Popil from the Thistle Curling Club in Edmonton (3:00) to talk about what makes the Thistle such a successful club, the overhead costs of running the club, what Curling Canada and Curling Alberta are doing to help curling clubs, balancing time in the facility between curling club membership vs corporate and group events as well as other possible revenue streams, and the importance of maintaining a good atmosphere at the club.

On ‘What are You Hearing?’, the guys are joined by Jill Price, Director of Audiology & Client Experience at HearingLife Canada, to discuss the importance of getting your hearing checked (23:30), new hearing aid technology, the effects of hearing loss on mental health, why HearingLife was interested in getting involved with sponsoring curling in Canada and Jill tries to convince Jim to get his hearing checked.

In the Mailbag, Jim gets an invite to go to Detroit (42:30) and they also get a letter about why the announcers never blame the skip for missed shots (45:30). In What’s Happening Around the Curling World, WCF announces that Pan Continental Tournament will be held in the Kelowna Curling Club next year (49:55) and the guys discuss the need for getting Jr’s involved in Mixed Doubles (57:00).
