The North Grenville Women's Fall Curling Classic is an annual women's bonspiel held in Kemptville, Ontario. It is typically held in early November and is put on by the North Grenville Curling Club. It was a World Curling Tour event from 2010 to 2019.
The event began in 2006 as the Scotiabank OVCA Women's Fall Classic. From 2007 to 2019 the event was known as the Royal LePage OVCA Women's Fall Classic and the Royal LePage Women's Fall Classic. The bonspiel was cancelled in 2019 and 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions. In 2022 and 2023 the event operated without a title sponsor. The event was put on hiatus in 2024 due to insufficient sponsorship. The event returned in 2025 under the sponsorship of Your Independent Grocer.
The 2026 event is scheduled for October 29 to November 1, 2026, as the Rose Dolan Fall Classic. The 2026 event will feature an increased prize purse of $27,500.
