Assiniboine Memorial Curling Club

The Assiniboine Memorial Curling Club is located in the northwestern area of Winnipeg, in the community of St. James.

The curling club was started up in 1929 and was nicknamed the 'root cellar', it had only 2 sheets of ice at the time.

A small fire destroyed part of the clubrooms and arena in 1972, most of the original structure remained and was rebuilt.

In 1992 the AMCC addressed the problem of the shifting Winnipeg 'gumbo' under the ice sheets.

The AMCC is the home of the 1995 world champion Kerry Burtnyk rink
