Springbank Friday Morning Seniors Mixed Curling League – May 2020

A great curling opportunity – Have fun, Exercise and Socialize

Our season windup lunch was held on Friday, March 13, which was a happy day for Ed Tysowski and his team. They were declared winners of the Winter Session Round Robin Tournament and were presented with the Nelson Memorial Trophy by league president Tim Presber and our honorary life member Norman Nelson. We were pleased that Norm was able to join us for the event, thanks to his daughter Sharon, who drove him from his residence in Cochrane, despite the wintery driving conditions that morning.

Ed was especially delighted with his win, exclaiming, “It’s taken me 18 years of playing with this league to finally win the trophy!” Our congratulations to Ed, pictured here with his team and Norm; Tracey Cove third, Marie Gay second and Diana Lawrence lead. Their names are etched for posterity on the Nelson Memorial Trophy.

Brian Davies, our exemplary draw master, at briancapitalland@gmail.com or 403.861.2742, is planning to send out emails mid-August and mid-September asking curlers and spares if they would like to play in the 2020-2021 season. In these uncertain times however, this will depend on whether the COVID-19 emergency is behind us by then.

In the meantime, best wishes for a safe, healthy and happy summer.
