You caught the [excitement](http://digg.com/video/sir-david-attenboroughs-describes-olympic-curling?ref=bklyner.com) during the Winter Olympics and have been biding your time until the Gowanus froze over so you could gather some buddies for a regular local curling match — well wait no more for that toxic strip to solidify, because there’s now an actual organized curling club in our area.

The Samuel J. and Ethel LeFrak Center at [Lakeside](http://lakesidebrooklyn.com/?ref=bklyner.com) in Prospect Park is now home to the[Brooklyn Lakeside Curling Club](https://www.facebook.com/brooklyncurling/), an official member of The Grand National Curling Club, and you can get out on the ice and trow some stones with them.

They’re hosting a free open house this Sunday, November 9 from 2-4pm, where certified curling instructors will bring you onto the ice and lead you through the rules, strategy, and techniques for delivering a stone and sweeping.

They’re also running [a clinic to teach people the fundamentals](http://lakesidebrooklyn.com/activities/winter-activities/curling/?ref=bklyner.com) — that also starts on November 9, and runs Sundays from 6:30-8pm through December 14\. It’s $255, but not only do you get instruction and games, you also get a free post-game drink at Lakeside’s Bluestone Cafe, because you’ll need to take the edge off after all that rock-hard competition.
