The Duluth Curling Club was organized in 1891. The original building was a tent between two retaining
walls on East Superior Street downtown,
but it was carried away by a blizzard that winter.
Another building at Wallace and Arrowhead was then converted for use, until
a structure was purpose-built in 1897 at 14th Avenue East and the
waterfront
The Club has been located here at the DECC since 1976. It is our fourth building, but our first heated building. It can be expanded to provide up to 13 curling sheets for major events, and is the largest facility in the United States. The Club Championship has been contested annually since at least 1909... 98 years! Past club champions, 1909 to 2007 We have hosted two World Championships, the US Olympic Trials, and numerous National events. Two DCC members have been inducted into the Curling Hall of Fame, for service to the sport. Numerous members have participated in and won State and National Championships over the years, and even a few World and Olympic Championships. We have grown to the second largest club in the US; only the St Paul CC, which is the sole curling facility in the Twin Cities, has more members.
