There was a great turnout for all three sessions of “Curling 101” on Saturday! These were free on-ice “Introduction to Curling” sessions for children and their parents/guardians. Both those who may have attended “Rocks and Rings” school gym sessions, as well as the general public, were invited. It looked like everyone really enjoyed it!
Thanks to everyone who helped out, including Amy Duncan from Curl PEI, Bev for collecting the names, Board members Brent, Edgar, Colleen, and Paula for helping out on and off the ice, Paula for taking the pictures, along with all the volunteer instructors, including Angela Sanderson, Yvonne Barbour, Sarah Fullerton, Emma Coffin, Gillian Barbrick, Katelyn Burgoyne, Baily O’Grady, Lauren Lenentine, Kaleigh Mackay, Kristie Rogers, and any that I missed (let us know, and we’ll add you!).
To the parents and kids who attended and might be interested in the kids learning more about curling, there are new junior instructional sessions starting in early January, so contact the Club at 566-4427, or info@cornwallcurling.com (or drop in!) for details and prices.
