League nights, bonspiels, and the click of rocks on ice: the Smoky Lake Curling Club is a winter fixture on White Earth Street, with an MCSnet sponsored Wi-Fi hotspot at the rink.

The Smoky Lake Curling Club runs curling through the winter months on White Earth Street, and its lounge doubles as a meeting space that the town has used for public information nights. Like curling clubs across rural Alberta, it depends on a core of volunteers to keep the ice in shape and the schedule running.
MCSnet sponsors the internet connection at the club, so members and visitors can get online in the lounge between ends or while waiting for a sheet to open up. It is one of four MCSnet sponsored hotspots in the town of Smoky Lake, alongside the CN Station Museum, the Ukrainian National Hall, and the Drop-In Centre, and visiting rinks passing through the county can count on the same connection at every stop.
Where: 57 White Earth Street, Smoky Lake, Alberta.
