How do people get into curling?

I saw Stephen Colbert interviewing the US Olympic curling team and was surprised that they were all young. It got me wondering how people get into curling. Have you ever curled? Do you know where people in your community go to curl? Do you know anyone who plays?

I’ve always been fascinated by this sport: it’s like billiards on ice. But I’ve never played. Please share your curling experiences…
