With the commencement of the Chedabucto curling rink’s sales of 50/50 tickets last week, the decision has been made to have our first draw for this season next Friday evening, December 4, at the rink’s annual turkey shoot.
To those who have purchased Chedabucto CC’s 50/50 tickets: Thank you! To others, your support will be appreciated whether you purchase or sell our tickets.
Thank you.

Our first day of Juniors went very well. Thus far we have 15 youngsters registered and more to come. Of the 15 young curlers we have 4 new Juniors with the balance returning from last year. (It was a real treat to see so many familiar faces.) The challenge that met us on Day 1 was due to the reality that the Boylston school bus now has many students — good for the school but challenging for the Juniors’ transportation needs. Parents and relatives rallied and got the youngsters to the rink with that necessity to become the normal method for the Juniors’ movement to the Chedabucto CC. However, as when we had the school bus, when school is cancelled on Juniors day, so too is Junior curling cancelled. I held back distributing 50/50 tickets to all the Juniors since I expect more to arrive this Wednesday and I did not want to distribute on Day 1. With the first 50/50 draw being this coming Friday, December 4 — therefore making it difficult to collect their sold tickets for December 4 — I am not going to give the youngsters tickets this week; that will happen on December 9. Parents are welcome to be at the rink during the Juniors program if your schedules will permit. Should you know of other youngsters who would like the experience and fun of curling please let us know or bring them to the rink — all are welcome.
Best regards, Ray
It is my pleasure to welcome Max and Diane Tulk as Social members in the Chedabucto Curling Club Community Activity Society (CAS). Max and Diane are ongoing supporters of the Chedabucto CC and will definitely bring their contributions to the rink’s activities.
Should you know of others who would like to join CAS under its Social membership classification, please invite them to apply. The dues for Social membership is only $25.00 (tax included) per year.
Best regards, Ray
Social members as described within CAS by-laws:
“Clause 2 – Membership (B) 6. Social members shall be persons 19 years of age or older subject to regular approval provisions who may attend the Club activities. Social members shall not have voting or curling privileges.”
Out of respect for two members of our curling community we have decided to cancel all Day League games on Thursday Nov. 12th so that members can attend both funerals. Chedabucto Curling Club wishes to pass on our condolences to the Fisher and O’Connor families. May they rest in peace.
The 2nd annual Nova Scotia Club Challenge Championship is to be held on March 5 at the Mayflower CC. It is a Ryder Cup-style competition for club-level curlers to determine the champion curling club in Nova Scotia for the year.
Attached is complete event information and a poster I was hoping could be put up in your club. Participants in the Travellers playdowns may have a particular interest in the event.
