Objective of this Website

This web site was created to archive material from the KW Granite Club – Detroit Curling Club Exchange.

We are always looking for more pictures and stories from past exchanges. If the pictures are digital, please email them. If you just have photos, email us and we will work out some way to get them scanned.

Background of the Exchange 

This curling exchange between clubs in Kitchener-Waterloo and Detroit began in 1917. Undeterred by wars, a depression and snowstorms, the exchange has been held each year ever since. There are not a lot of details about the early days of the exchange, but we do have some history.

 Format of the Exchange 

There are 2 parts to the exchange each year.
Early in November, Kitchener-Waterloo curlers venture to Detroit.

On the second or third weekend in March, Detroit curlers go to Kitchener-Waterloo. 

Join us for the First half of the 106th Exchange.

After a COVID hiatus we will be gathering again!
