Aksarben Curling hosts multiple bonspiels every year. The Halloween costume-themed Bone-Spiel Fun Spiel kicks off our curling season in October. We host a women's event Ladies Ice each winter to build community and grow the game among women curlers. Our club's long-running signature bonspiel, the Irish Open Bonspiel, is held every March. In April, we host the Aksarben Curling Season Championship for teams that won their fall and winter leagues. In July, we help support the Cornhusker State Games in providing a curling event during their annual summer games in July.
