On January the 21st the Cornwall Curling Club had the privilege to host the Strathcona Cup – and what an honour it was for our Club.
Twenty Scottish curlers, their bus driver and courier arrived and were greeted with a Scottish flag while the Scottish curlers entered the curling club under an arch of curling brooms formed by Cornwall curlers.
The piper, Angela McDonell, piped them out on the ice down to the other end and up to the home ice hog line. Cornwall member and past participant in the Scottish leg of the Strathcona Cup, Roddie MacLean, had the honour to toast the piper.
The curlers played four ends, stopped and stacked their brooms and were served a dram (shot) of scotch, and then continued to play the last four ends.
Two wins and two losses for each country, with the Scottish team taking the day overall by three points.
The curlers entered the clubhouse to music provided by Courtney Hogan and Todd MacLean.
Everyone got drinks and sat down for a delicious lunch of lasagna, Caesar salad, biscuit and chocolate cake with maple icing, which was catered by 9Haven Catering (Barb Duncan and her sister Carolyn).
Dignitary welcome speeches were made by our local MLA Mark MacLean, Cornwall Mayor Minerva McCourt, Curl PEI president Jane DiCarlo, and Cornwall Curling Club President Shauna McGill.
Jim Farquharson spoke about his own trip to Scotland for the Strathcona Cup and Roddie MacLean led us in the singing of Flower of Scotland.
After lunch the Scottish curlers thanked us and preceded to the bus with all their tokens and headed to Summerside for their next game.
We would truly like to thank everyone who helped plan this event.
Debbie Rhodenhizer spearheaded the event for the Club and George Koke was instrumental in organizing the event Island-wide.
Thanks also go to club manager Travis Jones, Roddie MacLean, Shirley Lank, Jim Farquharson, and Ernie Stavert as well as ice technicians, Ron Matters and Danny Kneabone, and bartender Debby Sigsworth.
A round of thanks also go to Myrna Sanderson and the ladies that helped with lunch: Carlene Peters, Helen Smith, Carol Sweetapple, Glennis Dorion, Janetta Fraser, Virginia MacDonald, and Sharon Campbell.
Thanks to Etta Reid, who made the beautiful table runners.
Also, to the piper, Angela McDonell, and musicians Courtney Hogan and Todd MacLean.
Special thanks to our Sponsors, George Koke, Town of Cornwall, and Tourism PEI.

Team Lenentine’s roster includes: Ella Lenentine, Makiya Noonan, Kacey Gauthier, Erika Pater, and Coach Robbie Lenentine.
The teams will now have the opportunity to represent PEI at Nationals in Quebec in March/April.
Congratulations and good luck!
The Kenmac Energy Bonspiel, held this past weekend, was a hard-fought battle for the win with only a 1.5-point differential between the top three curling teams! We were excited to have 20 teams (80 curlers) participating in the two-day event which consisted of lots of good food, terrific sportsmanship, and fun and games both on and off the ice.
Friday night draw one ended with Team Milligan in the lead with 18 points, followed by Team Berry with 16 points and Team Sutherland with 15 points. There was a three-way tie for the TV picture trivia that took place after the game with Team Bodner winning the tiebreaker. Meanwhile, Team Doiron outsmarted everyone and took the win for the picture puzzle game.
Saturday morning began with coffee and delicious baked goods from Mary’s Bakery. Team Berry took the lead in the second draw with 32 points, followed by Team Neima with 27 points and Team Wicki and Team Kamphius tied for third place with 24.5 points. Curlers then enjoyed a tasty pizza lunch provided by Sam’s Family Restaurant. Trivia was played during the break with Team Kelly reigning victoriously.
Things were really shaken up in draw three with Team MacDonald coming out on top with 42 points, closely followed by Team Wicki – 41.5 points and Team Kamphius – 40.5 points. Team Currie finished fourth place with 37 points and Team Doiron and Team Stefanik tied for fifth place with a score of 35. Doiron and Stefanik had the exact same point spread and ends won, therefore, a winner was decided by a dual of Rock/Paper/Scissors between the two skips which Elliot Doiron won.
The night was capped off with an awards ceremony, door prizes and a terrific roast beef dinner catered by Allan Carmichael and his staff from Al’s Catering Service.
Congratulations to all our winners and a sincere thank you to everyone for participating in this exciting annual event.
We would like to acknowledge and thank the staff of the Cornwall Curling Club, bartenders Blaise, Debbie and Katelyn for helping wherever needed throughout the weekend. Our ice crew, Ron and Danny for the awesome ice sheets and our Club manager, Travis, for his help before, during and after the spiel.
A big shout out to our volunteers who continuously step-up during spiels to help make the events run smoothly and successfully. Thank you!!!
The Cornwall Curling club is especially grateful to our sponsor, Kenmac Energy. Please help us give back by keeping Kenmac Energy in mind for your home heating needs.

Reminder to teams to be sure to mark the scoresheet following your game.
On Monday, December 19th the Daytime Committee hosted their annual Daytime Christmas Party for our Daytime Drop-in and Afternoon Stick curlers.
We had around 65 club members in attendance for curling, food, and socialization – and a great time was had by all!
Special thanks to Mark MacDonald for sponsoring the dinner – allowing extra proceeds to go to our annual Food Basket Drive – thanks so much!
On behalf of the management, staff, and Board of Directors of the Cornwall Curling Club we would like to wish everyone a wonderful holiday season and the happiest of New Years!
Our Club wouldn’t be the same without YOU!
The Club is typically closed between Christmas and New Year’s for our midseason maintenance. However, due to the fact that we will be hosting a provincial tournament during that time, the Club will close on Thursday, December 22nd and not open back for regular Club activities until Monday, January 2nd.
The rest of Monday and all of Tuesday will be on our regular schedule.
Wednesday AM will be used to make up games for our Wednesday Competitive League. Currently we have sheets 1, 2, and 3 booked. If you need to make up a game please email or call the Club Manager to schedule a time.
Assuming the afternoon draw isn’t booked with make-up games we will proceed with our drop-in stick curling. (I’ll send out a notification if this needs to change)
The Wednesday Ladder League will proceed as normal on Wednesday evening.
All Club activities, draws, and practices are cancelled on Thursday and Friday.
Thanks and Happy Holidays!
The pro shop still has plenty of new brooms, pants, grippers, helmets, and accessories that would make great presents!
Not sure what they want? We have you covered with gift certificates that are good for pro shop items, bar tabs, and membership fees!
The Club is hosting the PEI U18 Curling Championships from December 27-29 and needs volunteers. In particular, we need timers and people willing to update the live scores.
If you are interested or available to help please sign up at the Club or let the Club Manager know.
Thanks!
Round one of the Wednesday Evening Ladder League wrapped up Dec. 14, with the team of Karen Currie, Angela Sanderson, Melissa Creighton, Sharon Campbell, and Jenine Bodner going 5-2 win-loss to capture the “A” pool, while the Joe Callaghan rink, which includes Terry MacCormac, Amber Robb, and Clara Jack, won the “B”, also with a 5-2 record. Teams skipped by Greg Groves and Mark MacDonald also had only 2 losses in Pool A, but one of their losses was to Currie. Callaghan beat the other 5-2 teams, skipped by Paul Neima and Doug Callin in Pool B.

Teams Callaghan, Neima, and Callin will be climbing the ladder to the “A” pool for Round 2, starting December 21st, while teams skipped by Peter Joostema, Colin MacKenzie, and Greg Robertson will be descending the ladder to pool B.
There were 4 teams with 4 losses in the “A” pool, skipped by Norman Boswall, Tyler MacKenzie, Greg Robertson, and Colin MacKenzie, so determining the last two spots to drop down was complicated, The Colin MacKenzie rink volunteered to drop down, leaving only 1 spot.
None of these teams beat both of the others, so we look at point differentials between the three affected teams. Nov. 30 game between Robertson and Boswall was scheduled for 8 ends while the rest of the games that evening were 4 ends, so we have divided points in the 8 end game by 2.
Boswall: Points for vs T.MacKenzie 6
Points against (vs Robertson) divided by 2: 3.5
Point differential: 2.5
T.MacKenzie: Points for vs Robertson 7
Points against vs Boswall 6
Point differential: 1
Robertson: Points for vs Boswall 3.5
Points against vs MacKenzie: 7
Points differential: minus 3.5
Robertson had a minus point differential and will go to B.
Here are the teams for Round Two (order within each pool generated randomly):
