At each of these sessions, club members volunteered their time to spend 60 minutes before each session to prepare the ice rink for curling; a 30-minute lecture on safety and basic curling stance; 90 minutes of hands-on curling teaching on the ice rink; 30 minutes lecture post ice briefing. Approximately 60 instructors volunteered their time.
$210,201 spent100% of program spendingLeagues: Approximately 130 curlers participated in Winter, Summer, and Fall curling leagues.Each league held 6-13 curling dates for a total of approximately 100 curling dates. Prior to each league time 5-7 WCCC members volunteered to prepare the ice for curling - spending 60 minutes prior to each of the league times. After the league times, 35 WCCC members volunteered to clean the ice, remove, and store the curling rocks and equipment, taking approximately 30 minutes at each league day for this activity. The ice rink where the league games are held does not assist with any ice preparation of equipment storage. There was a WCCC member who also sits on the board, who coordinated all league work at no cost to the WCCC. WCCC members were present at all league games to provide instruction for those needing assistance. No WCCC member providing such instruction was compensated.
Crush and Barrel Tournaments: WCCC hosted 2 curling tournaments for approximately 144 curlers at the "Crush and 96 curlers at the "Barrel". The curlers come from all over the US and Canada for the event. Approximately 25 WCCC members volunteered their weekends to plan, prepare, promote, and execute these events.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2020, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2020, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2023 to 2024, from $92k to $144k (+57%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
0% of WINE COUNTRY CURLING CLUB’s revenue is contributions — more earned-revenue than three-quarters of its peers (18% for the typical peer).
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 6 reported years ran a deficit.

The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.

2 of 2 of your funders are donor-advised or pass-through sponsors (tagged DAF) — 100% of grant dollars received. That money is really individual donors directing a sponsor; the institutions to cultivate are the non-DAF funders.

How concentrated its funding is
WINE COUNTRY CURLING CLUB leans on a few funders — its largest provides 88% of grant income and the top three 100%; half comes from just 1 funder.
the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 1 funder to its left
100% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund WINE COUNTRY CURLING CLUB.
Largest funder’s share by year: 2020 100% · 2021 100% · 2022 100% · 2023 100% — broadly stable.
“Effective funders” = inverse Herfindahl index (1 / Σ shareᵢ²) — the number of equal-sized funders that would give the same concentration. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
Where its funders are
100% of WINE COUNTRY CURLING CLUB's grant income arrives through donor-advised or pass-through sponsors, whose addresses record where the money is held rather than where the donor is. Too little is directly attributable to place on a map.
Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $7k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been. Trends are read to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving. FY2024–FY2026 are still being filed and are shown unshaded; they do not move any figure on this page.
