The annual MacLeod Lorway Ladies Valentine’s Funspiel was held at the Chedabucto curling rink, Boylston, on February 12 and 13. Eight teams from a total of 32 ladies competed in 3 games of recreational curling while men looked after their curling, food and refreshment needs. A huge thank you to all the volunteers that made this weekend possible.

Industrial Bonspiel, February 18th – February 21st at the SACCC in Pot Hawkesbury….

SACCC is wondering if anyone from our club would like to put a team in for thier upcoming Industrial Bonspiel, February 18th – February 21st. If there does turn out to be a draw Thursday night, not all teams will play, so you’d certainly get consideration. Our team would also have a sponsor, so instead of the $200 team entry fee, it would only be $100. There is $2,000 in cash prizes, including a fun draw to the button on Saturday evening with the winner getting $300 and runnerup getting $100. There’s a dance (Jeremy White) Saturday night, and Roast Beef supper which is included. Lunch will also be available Saturday.
Deadline for registration is Tuesday at Noon.
If we have anyone who may be interested, Rocky Decoste is in charge of the bonspiel and his Phone# is 631-4615.
