The Cornwall Curling Club is proud to host the PEI Road Builders and Heavy Construction Association’s curling bonspiel again this year, as part of their 50th annual meeting.
Because of this event, there will be no daytime curling this Thursday February 2nd.
Charlottetown’s Mike Gaudet rink beat the Brett Gallant foursome by a 7-5 score tonight at the Cornwall Curling Club to win the PEI Tankard Provincial Men’s Curling Championship. It’s Gaudet’s fourth Tankard, winning as skip in 1994 and 2004, and last year as third for Eddie MacKenzie, who in turn played third for runner-up Gallant this year. Other members of the Gaudet team are Tyler MacKenzie, Tyler Harris, and Sean Clarey. Backing up Gallant were Eddie MacKenzie at third, Anson Carmody at second, and Alex MacFadyen at lead stone, with coach Al Ledgerwood.

In tonight’s game, Gallant blanked the first two ends, and opened the scoring with a deuce in the third. Gallant ran into trouble in the next end when he elected to pick a Gaudet stone out from several of his own stones, and missed the mark, handing Gaudet an open hit for three.

Gallant picked up a single in the next end to the the game 3-all at the half. The sixth end was blanked, and Gallant stole a single in the seventh to lead 4-3. Gaudet then manages to remove a Gallant shot stone which was behind cover and touching the four foot, and stays to count two, to take the lead 5-4.

Gallant then makes a tough final shot in end nine, to score one and tie the game at 5-5 by going through a port to remove the Gaudet counter, but lose last rock advantage in the final end, where Gaudet removes the the only Gallant stone in the house with his first skip rock to lie two. Gallant’s final stone is heavy, handing Gaudet, who doesn’t have to throw his final rock, the 7-5 win.

Both teams got to the final with wins over Charlottetown clubmate Rod MacDonald.
The Gaudet rink beat them 9-4 to win the Page 1-2 game and a bye to the final.
Gallant, a former Canadian Junior champion, came from behind to steal a deuce in the last end of the afternoon semi-final over MacDonald, whose last two rocks didn’t perform as expected, giving Gallant a 7-6 win and an opportunity to play in the PEI Tankard final.
The Gaudet foursome now advance to the Tim Hortons Brier, March 3-11 in Saskatoon.
Things were looking good in the latter ends of this afternoon’s PEI Tankard semi-final for Rod MacDonald and his rink, who have a combined total of 26 Tankards to their credit. The game had been tied up 3-3 at the half against their Charlottetown clubmates the Brett Gallant foursome, when MacDonald stole a single in end six to take the lead, followed by a deuce in the eighth end to pull ahead 6-3. However, the Brett Gallant team scored a deuce in the ninth, and stole another two in the 10th end to win the game 7-6 and advance to the final, tonight at 6:30 here at the Cornwall Curling Club, against the Mike Gaudet squad, also from the Charlottetown Curling Club.
Gallant, a former Canadian Junior champion and World Junior silver medallist, was playing with third Eddie MacKenzie, who skipped last year’s Tankard-winning team, along with Gallant’s long-time teammates Anson Carmody and Alex MacFadyen. Other members of the MacDonald rink were third Kevin Champion, second Mark O’Rourke, and lead Andrew Robinson. Gaudet played third on MacKenzie’s winning team last year, and has a total three Tankards to his credit. His rink includes third Tyler MacKenzie, second Tyler Harris, and lead Sean Clarey.
The winner of this evening’s game will advance to the Tim Hortons Brier, March 3-11 in Saskatoon.
Round two ended up with the addition of one more team, skipped by Aaron Campbell, that was added to the A pool to make 8 teams, while the B pool had six. Next round we will reverse the number in each pool, so four teams will descend the ladder to the B pool, and 2 will climb to the A..
Paul Neima again won the A pool, with five straight wins. Down in the cellar were the Angus Kennedy and Joerg Soltermann rinks with one win each, followed by Bob Fowler and Aaron Campbell with two wins each Campbell played one less game than the others, but his only wins were against Kennedy and Soltermann. Teams with 3 wins were Karen Currie, who beat Campbell, Greg Groves, who beat Currie,and Kris Currie who beat Groves, so we”ll gve the honour of moving down the ladder to the Campbell team.
In the B pool, Bob MacWilliams peeled off five straight wins, to win the prize for the round, plus a trip back up to the A pool. Gord Peters and Ray Biage were next with three wins, but Peters beat Biage in their round robin encounter, and will move up to the A pool.
So, it’s Kennedy, Joerg Soltermann, Bob Fowler, and Aaron Campbell down, and MacWilliams and Peters up for round three.
Pools will alternate early and late starts, with Pool B curling at 6:30 the first week (they curled at 8:30 last week)

The KFC Age 12 and Under Provincial Curling Championships will be held February 26, 2012 at the Crapaud Community Curling Club. For less experienced/competitive curlers in the same age category, KFC is also sponsoring a Fun Tournament at the same club, on March 4. It is hoped that the two events will increase overall participation, while shortening the length of each event.
Entry deadline for both events is February 10, and registration fee for each event is $20 per player. Curlers are asked to choose one event only. The Provincials have separate boys and girls divisions and will play three six-end games, while the Fun Tournament will offer three four-end matches, and players on a team may be any combination of boys and/or girls. A point system will be used in each event to determine 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Each event also includes lunch and fun off-ice activities.
The Provincial Championship is intended for more experienced curlers who have curled for more than one year, while the Fun Tournament is open to first year curlers, with a maximum of two curlers with two or more years experience permitted on a team. Enter either event online at PEICurling.com. Payment may be made online or by cheque and must reach the PEICA by one week after the entry deadline.
Defending 12 and Under champions are the Donald DeWolfe rink from the Cornwall Curling Club and the Kaleigh MacKay team from the Silver Fox Curling and Yacht Club in Summerside.
Visit PEICurling.com/12andunder for live results from the Provincial 12 and Under event. The first three finishers from the Fun Tournament will also be announced on the website.

CORNWALL Coun. Irene Dawson summed it up succinctly at the grand opening of the Cornwall Civic Centre on Thursday.
“I’m quite proud of this place,” Dawson said after she walked through the front door.
The provincial and federal governments teamed up with the Town of Cornwall to spent $666,000 each on the new structure. When all is said and done, however, the town will spend close to $900,000 on the Civic Centre, bringing the total price tag to about $2.3 million.
The entire building is brand new.
The only memory left over from the old Civic Centre is the curling rink and even it got a makeover. The viewing area is brighter and completely wide open with much more room to view action on the ice, a good thing considering the P.E.I. Tankard men’s curling championships is underway.
Deputy Mayor Corey Frizzell said he took special pride in the new look.
“My grandfather had a hand in building this place in the late 1960s,” Frizzell said, referring to the original structure. “My mom used to come to some of the dances. It’s an icon in Cornwall.”
New features include a lift to make the building more accessible and additional space to serve the adjacent outdoor pool and the curling club. The new facility will serve the Cornwall and Area 50-Plus Club, the Lions Club and will also house community indoor recreation programming.
Digntaries on hand for this afternoon’s grand opening of the Cornwall Civic Centre took the opportunity to tour the Cornwall Curling Club part of the reconstructed facility during the opening draw of the PEI Tankard.
CHARLOTTETOWN, PEI — Residents of Cornwall are now benefitting from major renovations to the new and improved Cornwall Civic Centre thanks to investments by the Government of Canada, the Province of Prince Edward Island and the Town of Cornwall.
“Our Government understands that solid infrastructure helps to strengthen communities,” said the Honourable Gail Shea, Minister of National Revenue, on behalf of the Honourable Bernard Valcourt, Minister of State for the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) and La Francophonie. “This newly renovated Cornwall Civic Centre is now more accessible and sustainable, and will continue to be a natural gathering place for residents and visitors.”
The new renovations included reconstruction of the entire Civic Centre with the exception of the curling rink itself. New features include a lift to make the building more accessible, and additional space to serve the adjacent outdoor pool and the curling club. The new facility will serve the Cornwall and Area 50-Plus Club, the Lions Club and will also house community indoor recreation programming.
“The civic centre is not only enjoyed by curlers and swimmers, but it is also an important location for community events and celebrations,” said Prince Edward Island Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal Minister Robert Vessey. “The changes that have been made throughout this renovation project make the space more accessible, more energy efficient and more sustainable, and that means all residents will be able to enjoy the space for years to come.”
The Government of Canada, through its Building Canada Fund, the Government of Prince Edward Island, under Build PEI, and the Town of Cornwall made a combined investment of $2 million in these infrastructure improvements.
“The Town of Cornwall is very pleased to see the Cornwall Civic Centre project completed and looks forward to many years of the facility continuing to be one of the focal centres in our community,” noted Mayor Glen (Barney) Fullerton. “The cooperation demonstrated by all levels of government, along with the support and patience of the user groups in moving this project along is a testament to the commitment of all involved.”
The Cornwall Curling Club recently underwent an upgrade to the curling rink, which included repairs to the roof and an overhaul of the ice plant. This was made possible through the Recreational Infrastructure Canada (RInC) program and the Island Community Fund. Additional curling club renovation funding came from the Canadian Curling Association’s Capital Grants program.
With the modernization of the civic centre, in addition to the curling rink upgrades, the Cornwall Civic Centre is a strategic investment that will enhance the quality of life for local residents.

O’LEARY – A four-time P.E.I. senior women’s champion has won the Medicine Shoppe P.E.I. provincial masters curling championship on her first try.
Shirley Berry denies that this was her first year of masters (60 and older) eligibility. It’s just that the dates of the seniors and masters provincials have often been such that a team couldn’t participate in both.
Berry and her rink of Sandy Hope, Arleen Harris and Evelyn Rogerson strung together three consecutive victories in the double-knockout championship after losing their opening game at the Maple leaf Curling Club in O’Leary on Monday.
Rogerson wasn’t in attendance for Wednesday’s third and deciding victory. She was in the air en route for California.
The remaining players rode a 5-0 first-end lead to an 8-5 victory over the Cornwall rink of Ruth Stavert, Myrna Sanderson, Gloria Clark and Myrna Craswell.
“I never like starting a game with a five-ender,” Berry admitted, acknowledging it’s hard to hold a big lead.
The Stavert rink made things interesting in the eighth end. They had three rocks in the rings when Harris froze to the shot stone at the back of the four-foot. Stavert angled onto the shot stone with her first skip rock, but didn’t have the necessary weight with her last rock to bump Harris’ stone out of the rings. Berry didn’t have to throw her last rock.
Stavert finished with a 2-2 (won-lost) record, with both of her losses imposed by the Berry rink.
