Murray Soder | Oliver

Murray of Oliver BC has curled in Oliver since the 1960’s. From construction of a hockey arena and playgrounds in Oliver to various upgrades to the Oliver Curling Club, Murray has had a hand in building recreation and community in Oliver for 60 years! He has seen many committees go onto build facilities such as a new outdoor swimming pool, community centre, ball fields, skate park, as well as a mini golf.

Murray’s contributions to curling across BC are numerous as well; he was an essential member of the Interior Curling Associating and was part of the group that unified BC curling organizations to form Curl BC and served as Curl BC’s first president in 1994. Murray is still an active curler at 93 years old, curling twice a week and is still involved at the club, lending his time and expertise.

Murray is a true lifelong volunteer and builder of curling in BC; thank you Murray for making waves over decades and across the province! Check out the other BC Volunteers at curlbc.ca/national-volunteer-week-2025/
