2022 Murphy’s Pharmacies Ice Queens Women’s FUNspiel – another great success!
Cornwall Curling Club members and guests had a terrific time at the 2022 Murphy’s Pharmacies Ice Queens FUNspiel held on Saturday, November 26. Eight teams took part in the one-day event and lots of laughs were had by participants throughout the day. Each team played three six-end games in a round-robin format.
Thanks to the amazing talents of our wonderful volunteers, there was no shortage of home-made baked goods, fruit, sandwiches, chowder, chili, soup, and snacks for everyone to enjoy. A picture puzzle game was played during our first break and the ladies’ brain power was tested during the next break with some tricky trivia. Team Lisa I. (Lisa I., Kathy Thompson, Patsy McCarville, Sue Pollard, Kim Nickerson) will be celebrating their Puzzle/Trivia win with gift cards from our sponsor Murphy’s Pharmacies. A 50/50 draw was held and the lucky winner was Jane MacKay.
We would like to take the time to thank our Cornwall Curling Club staff for all their hard work and dedication; our Club Manager, Travis Jones, who helped with registrations, recruiting and advertising; Ron Matters and Danny Kneebone for the amazing ice surface that helped us play our best game; and Debby Sigsworth and Kelley Farrar for tending the bar, watching our lunch items on the stove while we were on the ice and for helping clean and sanitize before and after each game. You are superstars!
A special thank you to our participants, especially our volunteers that are far too many to name, who took time out of their busy schedules to make this event successful and FUN.
Lastly, I HUGE thank you to Murphy’s Pharmacies!!! Without your generosity, this event would not be possible. THANK YOU!
