Every four years during the Winter Olympics, curling is top of mind for many Americans. The sport is now hooking people in the Bay Area left and right.
"I actually got into curling from my husband who got into it watching the '06 Olympics," said Kate Garfinkle, the President of the San Francisco Bay Area Curling Club.
"This really spoke to me, I love the teamwork part of it and also the community is part of what kept me coming back," said Garfinkle. "We started in Oakland at the downtown ice center, and we grew and couldn't fit the space anymore," said Grafinkle. "We realized if we wanted ot get better and compete then we needed to create our own facility with world top ice and that's why we opened this.
The club's goal is not just to attract top talent, rather to continue to diversify the sport and to make sure all feel welcome on the ice.
