When is a stone not a stone? When it’s wood!

This wooden curling stone was used between about 1850 and 1880 on a frozen stretch of Spring Creek in Lodi, Wis., created by the dam for the Excelsior flour mill. From its condition, the stone may have been submerged for some time, perhaps having fallen through the ice at the end of the season.

Curling has been popular in southern Wisconsin for a long time. The Milwaukee Curling Club, founded in 1846, is the oldest continuously operating curling club in the United States. The second oldest in Wisconsin is the Portage club, established in 1850. In 1892 Lodi joined its Columbia County neighbors Portage, Arlington, Cambria, and Poynette as five of the eight founding Wisconsin members of the Northwestern Curling Association of America (NWCAA).

The Sconnies went neck and neck last Friday, coming down to a tie in the final end, resulting in a shootout by the Skips. Eli and the Skip of the other team each each threw 1 stone to see who made the best draw. It was CLOSE but devastatingly our opponent’s stone was just a little closer to the button (center of the the circle).

Back at it again tonight in a late game! 8:15, Lodi Curling Club
