The Aksarben Curling Club hosts multiple bonspiels every year. The Halloween costume-themed Bone-Spiel Fun Spiel kicks off our curling season in October. Our club's long-running signature bonspiel, the Irish Open Bonspiel, is held every March, which includes a novice and an open/experienced division. We help support the Cornhusker State Games in providing a curling event during their annual summer games in July. We also have a Women's Funspiel (Ladies Ice!) to grow the community among women curlers.
