On Wednesday, March 24th, one club from each category with the top ticket sales will be rewarded with a $500 bonus.... On Thursday, March 25th, the top two clubs in each category will receive a $500 bonus.

I would like to take an opportunity to congratulate Kiara Tessier on her graduation from Crescent Heights High School. Kiara has been part of junior curling for many years, both as a participant and as a coach. In fact, she completed the Club Coach course when she was too young to even get formal recognition for it. She has volunteered with junior curling 2 days a week for the last several years which has been greatly appreciated. Good luck Kiara and THANK YOU for your dedication to junior curling!

The ladies bonspiel may have been cancelled but the ring raffle draw was made. Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket. Congratulations to Kris and Landon who were the big winners! The committee appreciates all of the support from local businesses. We look forward to having a Fiesta in 2021!

Spoiler alert - Steve the Barista from Medicine Hat does not fare well....perhaps next season we can send someone with a better chance of making the team. This will put a smile on your face even if you aren’t a fan of The Bachelor. Enjoy!

Please take a moment and read the following letter from the Club President regarding the difficult decision to cancel the remainder of the curling season.

What an excellent weekend of curling and fun at this years annual Men’s Bonspiel. This year we were able to host 32 teams in a 4 day event. The A Event winner this year was the John Stroh team of Medicine Hat over the Tim Krassman foursome from Calgary. Stroh stole four single points in the first four ends to take the commanding 4-0 lead. Krassman fought his way back counting one in the 5th end, stealing 1 in 6 and 2 in the 7th end to tie the game. In the final end Stroh’s... teammates did a great job of keeping things clear and Krassman guarded their only stone in the eight foot, leaving Stroh a draw to the four foot. Helping Stroh in making the four foot draw were Garth Stark, Mike Stroh and Fred Weinheimer. 3rd and 4th place went to WFG (World Financial Group) and Delvin Moch. B Event Kyle Wagner from Medicine Hat controlled their final game against the Jason Tuchscherer squad and the game was conceded in the seventh end. Playing with Wagner were Corey Perrin, Jason Kunz and Greg Sjolie. 3rd and 4th place winners were C. Sehn Trucking (Richmound, SK) and the Bowyer foursome.
