"The collection of WCF Courses, Camps and Seminars is quite exciting  
for 2009," said Keith Wendorf, WCF Director of Competitions and a key  
mover behind the WCF camp and course initiatives.

"From late May through mid-July, five different WCF learning  
symposiums will continue to educate and market the various skill-sets  
of curling participants, officials and technicians from numerous  
countries around the world," Wendorf added.

"Once again we will convene in Fuessen, Germany and Prague, in the  
Czech Republic, for a great summer of curling activity."

The learning season will open with the third annual WCF Adult Curling  
Camp in Prague, 29 May to 02 July. 64 participants will advance their  
skills from a strong lineup of professional curling coaches and noted  
high-performance curling athletes.

Next up are three popular courses taking place in Fuessen.
