The sport of curling is an important part of Norfolk winter life, but it’s not a passion that’s much shared among the general population. But every four years, during the Winter Olympics, curling takes its place on the world stage. In honor of this year’s Olympics, the Norfolk Curling Club hosted a day of special events on Feb. 17. Visitors could tour the facility, watch the Olympics on television monitors, and even step on the ice to deliver and sweep a stone. If you’d like to learn more, there will be a special Saturday five-week training course starting on March 3. You can sign up online at www.norfolkcurlingclub.org.
