The Eau Claire Curling Club is so excited about the 2010 Winter Olympics that they’ve challenged Team USA to curling duel today on their home turf: the ice of the Eau Claire County Expo Center. And you get to watch. This is a fundraising event for the club, and as such: $40: One end against men's team and one end against Debbie McCormick's team. This option includes a meal, t-shirt, and presentation by the Olympic teams. $30: One game and meal/t-shirt/presentation. $20: One end against each team without meal. $20: No curling, just meal/t-shirt/presentation. $10: One of curling against team of your choice. Details.
