Our Day League Final was held this morning. It turned into an exciting game after Gerry Jamieson’s team had gone out in front 6-1 after 3 ends. Joe Jamieson’s team fought back with 1 in the 4th and then stole the next 5 to go ahead 7-6 after 7 ends. Gerry tied it up in the 8th to force and extra end. In the end Joe did not have to throw his last rock and won the game 8-6. Great game to end the curling season. Congrats to Joe’s team of Marg Halloran, Joe Phalen and Iris Stanley. Runner’s up are Gerry, Mike Nicholson (in his 1st year of curling), Brian Farrell, and Marion Brow.

With this Saturday being the Sceles Memorial Closing Bonspiel and also the concluding weekend for this year’s 50/50 draws, the decision has been made to have the concluding 50/50 draw at the closing supper on Saturday.
On Friday afternoon the ticket boxes will be collected from their locations and stored away until next winter — with the tickets removed. 🙂

Our Tuesday Night League Championship was held last night with Team Dobson playing Team Luddington. George’s team jumped out to a 4-1 lead after 3 ends but Paula’s team fought back and stole the last 6 points to win 7-4. Good game that could have gone either way. It should be noted that Wilfred Myette is part of Paula’s team and could not make the game. Also Monique Scanlan was part of her team but left early on in the season. Congrats to Team Dobson.

The Champs

Carol Rhynold (spare), Paula Dobson, Iris Stanley, and Marion Brow (spare).

The Runners-Up

Margaret Hadley, Lois MacDonald, Valerie George, and George Luddington.

Good morning members. former members and supporters,
Chedabucto CC’s closing spiel is this weekend and you know what that means: In addition to curlers for the six-ender games, volunteers are needed to deal with meals and duties.  We truly welcome and appreciate assistance from all: existing members, former members and to those who simply like to support Chedabucto CC.
The Club needs someone to cook the donated 26 pound turkey to be served for this Saturday’s supper.  We have a new stove at the club if that is simpler for cooking location. We have a person to carve the turkey if the cook wishes and we do have someone already committed to making the dressing. We do need the gravy to be made.
The vegetables  need to be prepared for Saturday’s supper. The thought was for potatoes, carrots and another so as to have enough.  If individuals could commit to one of the veggies that would also be appreciated.  We will know on Wednesday the numbers who are curling for the head count.
Not to forget desserts — special events are always better with a sweet treat.  Again the amount will depend on registered curlers.
Then there is the lunch meal.  There will need to be a kitchen person to cook the burgers plus sausages.  If donations for other goodies are brought, we will not turn your generosity away.
Rolls or buns always go nicely with a hot meal thus they too will be a nice addition. As you can imagine more backs make the load lighter therefore the phone calls as necessary with start tonight and tomorrow to line up the Club’s needs for another successful bonspiel.
Let one of the executive know if you can pitch in: me, Paula Dobson, Phil O’Regan, Kay Chisholm. Holly Nahrebecky , Lois MacDonald, or Brian Farrell .
With the Club’s lounge ice-viewing monitors installed, being a spectator is now much more  enjoyable.
