The monsters, aliens, and other creatures of the night were out in full force on Friday night, as the Kenmac Energy Opening Bonspiel got underway. Here’s a photo of some of those aforementioned creatures:

Following curling action, and great food, the costume judging was held, with Frankenstein and his bride (Rob/Sheri) winning best couple, O Christmas Tree (Lorianne) winning most original costume, and Bob Marley (Joe) winning for the funniest costume.

We are looking for more curlers for the 8 pm Thursday draw. We’ll take team entry, single entry, or anything else. See Bev.

We are on the hunt for an artificial Christmas tree to put out in the ice area during the holiday season. If you have one you are not using, and can loan it to us, or give it to us, it would be much appreciated. Our icemaker would like one that is easy to assemble, as he says that he is an icemaker, not a tree surgeon!
