For us to have 8 teams on the weekend for the Skins spiel we need 5 more players. Teams will be selected by a draft on Wednesday Feb 24th by the skips. You will then be notified by the skips. First draw on Friday night is 6:15pm. Second draw is 8:30pm. So if anyone is interested I need to know by Wednesday afternoon at the latest. I will have the latest sign-up sheet at the club posted on Monday. You can use that or email me back. In need of primarily leads/seconds plus a skip right now but we will take all positions right now and move things around. Meals all day Saturday for the curlers is included in your registration fee of $30. Non-curlers pay a nominal fee. Also if anyone has guitars they want to bring and do some jamming that would nice for Friday and/or Saturday night. Let’s make this a fun weekend for all.

Our home and home series with the Highlander CC has come to a close for another season. Our club entered play on Wednesday Feb 17th as defending champs with a 85 to 76pt lead. However the games on Wednesday, even though the wins and losses were even, the Highlander CC was able to pull out a very close 2pt victory. The point totals on Wednesday was 87pts for the Highlander CC for a 2 series total of 163pts. Chedabucto CC had 76pts that day for a 2 series total of 161pts. Congrats goes out to the Highlander CC.
