Come watch some great curling and entertainment at the Cornwall Curling Club!
The Cornwall Curling Club is getting ready to host its first Masters Plus Bonspiel on Thursday November 21 and Friday November 22. Masters Plus means that three of the curlers on a team must be 60 years of age or over, with one player permitted to be 55 or over.
There are 16 teams entered representing 10 different curling clubs from Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. Off Island teams are from CFB Halifax, Antigonish, Truro, Sackville and Moncton. Draws are 8:30, 11:00, 1:30 and 4:00 each day. On Thursday between 3:15 and 4:15 the curlers will be entertained by a talented young artist Fiona MacCorquodale. She is only 15 years old and released her second CD this past July.
