RED & YELLOW BONSPIEL
2024-2025 Date: March 28-29, 2025
Registration sheets have been posted in the club for the upcoming Red & Yellow Closing Bonspiel.
The newly minted Red & Yellow will be on Friday, March 28th and Saturday, March 29th.
For those new to the club – the Red & Yellow is the annual closing event for the club – lots of curling, trivia/games, and a banquet. Every club member is assigned to a team (Red or Yellow) and remains with that team year after year!
Points from our junior division, stick division, and weekend event are all added together and the winner gets bragging rights for the next year!
Please be mindful when registering – we have THREE distinct divisions (daytime, evening, and stick) – make sure you are registering for the correct division.
The cost for the weekend – curling and banquet – is $40.
RED & YELLOW CHALLENGE
If you haven’t had a chance to read about the NEW Red & Yellow Challenge, please be sure to check out the details on our website at: https://cornwallcurling.com/red-yellow-bonspiel-challenge/
We are encouraging all members to Pay It Forward by donating blood, time, or money to the Canadian Blood Services or Canadian Cancer Society between now and the Red & Yellow.
The team with the most individuals who donate and confirm (either by emailing the manager or marking it down on the donation page at the club) will receive a bonus 10,000 points for their team’s cumulative score!
It’s hard to believe that it’s time to start registration for our annual closing event – the Red & Blue Bonspiel!
While sadly it marks the end of our curling season, the event is always a highlight of the calendar with loads of fun curling, eating great food, hanging out with other club members and, of course, the playful but intense competition between the Red and Blue teams!
For those who are new to the club or haven’t participated in the past – each member is assigned to either the Red team or, if you are lucky, you’ll be assigned to the Blue team.
- You’ll remain on this team for the rest of your time as a member of the club
- If you and a family member are playing, we place you on opposing teams to up the ante
We have events throughout the week with our juniors and stick curlers as well – and their points are counted toward the weekend scoring. On Friday and Saturday the games are played with a skins format and each team earns “money” toward their teams account.
The team with the highest scores at the end of the event are crowned the champions and get bragging rights for an entire year!
In addition to the curling there is a banquet on Saturday, trivia, and prizes for highest scoring teams and random door prizes!
Cost is $40 per curler and registration can be found on the bulletin board at the club.
If you want to attend the banquet only the cost is $20.
