The Granite Curling Club, also known as The Granite, is a curling club located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Established in 1880, it is the oldest curling club in western Canada. Affectionately known to curling fans as the "Mother Club", it has produced many Canadian and world champions. It is often considered to be the "St. Andrews" of curling because of its contribution to the sport in curling's most dominant region.
History
The original Granite Curling Club dates back to 1880. Its current downtown location and Tudor-framed clubhouse was built in 1913, and the building has since been designated as a Winnipeg Heritage Building.[1][2]
One of the early presidents was John B. Mather, who assumed that position in 1887.
Since 2005, the club has hosted the Keystone Curling League, an LGBT league and member of the Canadian Pride Curling Association.[3] Keystone and the Granite have twice hosted the Canadian Gay Curling Championships, most recently in 2016, when Manitoba champions and Olympic gold medalists Kaitlyn Lawes and Jill Officer threw the ceremonial first rock.[4][5]
