Although curling is one of the safest ice sports out there, it is, of course, played on a sheet of ice and falls can happen, sometimes causing concussions and head injuries. The Cornwall Curling Club Pro Shop has a selection of made-in-Canada “Ice Halo” protective head gear that’ll help keep you safer on the ice. The lightweight, closed cell construction doesn’t make your head hot and the Velcro closures make the head gear adjustable and secure.  Styles now include toques and baseball caps, as well as the “headband” style that you may have seen before. Check them out at the Club, and on their website www.icehalo.ca
