AGM 2024: Club updates
We have new rocks!
At the previous AGM we announced the purchase of new rocks for all sheets. Now, in addition to the great Lakeshore ice we all love, we'll also have top quality curling stones. The rocks were ordered from Kays Scotland and they arrived in October of 2023. We greatly appreciate the efforts of our New Rocks committee, which includes
- Laughie Rutt
- John Chisholm
- Dan Leslie
- Steven Galloway
Throughout this past year, Cathy and the team worked hard at fund raising through club, commerical, and government channels, and we applaud their hard work.
