It was a great day to be Red, following Friday play at the Cornwall Curling Club's Countryview Golf Closing Bonspiel. The opening draw saw two sheets in play, with Red winning one game and losing the other, to end up in a dead heat. It was also close after the second draw, but, by the end of the third round, Red had a firm hold on the lead, with a 49-41 score. Blue isn't ready to concede yet, however, and with today's draws getting underway at 9 am, with the last draw at 4, anything can happen (and usually does!).
Last night's activities took on a tropical theme, with the club decorated to the 9's with palm trees, hula girls, sombreros, a swimming pool, and just about every tropical cliché one could dream up! An authentic tropical meal of tacos and ice cream was served, and Scott Jeffrey of Moovin' and Groovin' (peidj.com)kept everybody dancing to the tropical tunes well into the night. A nice jacket from Countryview Golf(who, by the way, are opening today) and a bag big enough to hold a person were among the door prizes given out at the dance. Enough talking -- check out the slide show and see for yourself what fun we can have!
There's some live music in store on Saturday afternoon, and the barbecue will see action at noon as the fun and food continues on Saturday. Things will wind up with a dinner and awards ceremony with prizes for the winning colour. See you at the Club!
