The last chance to buy week-long passes for the Canadian Mixed Curling Championship (CMCC) at advance prices ends next weekend.

Harry Plemel, chair of the organizing committee for the CMCC, said the price of week-long passes will rise from $75 to $100 as of Dec. 2.

Plemel said about 500 tickets have already been sold or given to sponsors and advance purchasers.

Tickets are available at the Weyburn Curling Club and Weyburn Agriculture Society. There will also be a public stand at the Weyburn Square Mall on Dec. 1 selling souvenirs and advance week-long passes.

Weekend passes, which cover the last three days of the CMCC, each cost $45 and will go on sale Dec. 4.

The CMCC runs Jan. 6-14, 2001, with a week of curling competition and events.
