Parkbridge Communities Interclub Seniors Bonspiel
For the first time this year, the Daycurlers League ran the Parkbridge Communities Interclub Seniors Spiel hosting teams from surrounding communities. Participating this year were teams from Orillia, Elmvale, Coldwater, Penetanguishene and Midland. Thanks go out to John McCallum for initiating and organizing this new spiel and for running a very successful day. Each team played two eight end games and everyone enjoyed a great roast beef luncheon put on by John and Barb McCallum. The winning team was team Le Blanc from Penetang. Second place went to team Hunter from Midland and third place to team Turner from Elmvale.
Christmas Bonspiel
The Daycurlers’ Christmas Bonspiel was a huge success this year with eighty curlers participating and well over one hundred curlers and their supporters at the club for a festive lunch.
The winning team included: Bob Richardson, Al Black, Ken Languay, Elizabeth Broughton, Doug Hook, Marthe Scott, Shari Edwards and Helen French. The door prizes were won by two of our elderly but much loved members: Stan Gown won the bottle of Bailey’s and Mary Lauzon won the poinsettia. Both of these prizes were donated by members of the league Andy Zuidema and Lynne Morton. Alastair Milligan won the lucky draw which was a gift certificate for Meatland for the purchase of a fresh turkey.
After the fabulous lunch catered by E.L.M., our musicians, Noel McCartney, John McCallum and Paul Mallany lead us in a round of Christmas Carols. Thanks go out to Lana and Gerard Lyons for organizing this bonspiel and to all of those individuals who pitched in to help with registration, table set up, music and clean up.
On a separate note, thanks to Stan Gowan for once again spearheading the Salvation Army food drive which raised over $2500 this year.
