Cultural Moment

The Palmerston Curling Club was founded in 1903 and games were played on a natural two ice sheet lean-to beside the arena. Eventually, the club moved to an indoor rink due largely to a growing popularity of the sport in the region. In 1978 it moved to its current location in the Palmerston & District Community Centre, where people can now curl on four ice sheet surface.
