The Comox Valley Curling Centre is thrilled to announce the 4th annual Battle of The Breweries Keg Curling Fundraiser, this year in benefit of Cat Advocates Teaching and Saving Society. The CVCC made history as being the first ever (and still only) curling tournament featuring beer kegs actually curled on the ice! For this year’s tournament the participating eight craft breweries are Ace Brewing, Beach Fire, Cumberland Brewing, Gladstone, Hoyne, Land & Sea, Mount Arrowsmith, & Rad Brewing. These crafty brewers will be battling it out in this special spectator friendly and fan participation event on Saturday March 23 at 7:30. The winner to receive bragging rights for the year, a $500 advertising prize from Jet FM, and the cherished opportunity to sip from the grand prize trophy the Kegoblet.

In addition to the fierce on ice competition between the breweries, anyone in attendance at the club will be welcome to try shooting a beer keg themselves (for a small $5.00 donation) at the intermission and win prizes for getting their keg closest to the button (center of the curling rings). All proceeds from this event will go to Cat Advocates Teaching and Saving Society and their efforts in the rescuing, caring of, and finding safe new homes for cats in need.

The Battle of The Breweries is part of the entertainment happening at the concurrent Pros & Joes Funspiel in progress that weekend. In addition to the fundraising at the Keg curling event, the Comox Valley Curling Centre will donate 50 cents from every beer sold that weekend to Cat Advocates. Beyond that, Victoria’s Hoyne Brewing is donating 50 cents from every Hoyne beer sold at the CVCC during the entire month of March. Cumberland’s famous Lucky Village Karaoke will be the upstairs entertainment in the newly renovated banquet room, followed by dancing. The entire Pros and Joes weekend will have a Cats, Space, and Disco theme...or any combination thereof!
