About Elk Point and District Curling Society

The Elk Point and District Curling Society runs the town’s curling rink, offering leagues and ice time to curlers of any age, gender, or skill level in a sport the club says helps meet the community’s social, physical, and mental needs. Like most small-town curling clubs in this part of Alberta, the work of keeping ice in and leagues running falls largely to local volunteers.

MCSnet sponsors a free public Wi-Fi hotspot at the rink, so curlers, spectators, and volunteers can stay online during a bonspiel or a regular league night. It is one of five MCSnet hotspots in Elk Point, alongside the A.G. Ross Arena, the Elk Point Riding Arena, the Elk Point Regional Allied Arts Society, and the Elk Point Pioneer Seniors Centre, all sharing the same network name and password.

Why Free Wi-Fi Here Matters

A curling rink fills with people for hours at a stretch during league nights and bonspiels, and not everyone gets a strong cell signal inside. A free, encrypted Wi-Fi connection lets curlers and spectators check scores, keep in touch, or just pass the time between ends.

MCSnet sponsors this hotspot as part of its community partnership program across rural Alberta. See every free Wi-Fi hotspot in Elk Point, the full hotspot directory, or read about home internet in Elk Point.
