January 16th and 17th Curling Bonspeil

Hello Ladies,

Happy New Year! We hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas and wish you all the best in the new year. The Bonspeil is on Friday, January 16th and Saturday, January 17th. There is no curling on Wednesday the 14th or Thursday the 15th that week. We have divided you up into three draws according to the points so far.

Friday at 6:30
Janice vs. Rachel - Ice 1 and Karen vs. Sandy - Ice 2

Friday at 8
Janette vs. Mary - Ice 1 and Myrna vs. Ruth - Ice 2

Friday at 9:30
Andrea vs. Erin - Ice 1 and Pauline vs. Carol - Ice 2

Saturday at 8
Janice vs. Karen - Ice 1 and Rachel vs. Sandy - Ice 2

Saturday at 9:30
Janette vs. Myrna - Ice 1 and Ruth vs. Mary - Ice 2

Saturday at 11
Andrea vs. Pauline - Ice 1 and Erin vs. Carol - Ice 2

Saturday at 12:30
Janice vs. Sandy - Ice 1 and Karen vs. Rachel - Ice 2

Saturday at 2
Janette vs. Ruth - Ice 1 and Mary vs. Myrna - Ice 2

Saturday at 3:30
Andrea vs. Carol - Ice 1 and Erin vs. Pauline - Ice 2

The theme is dress in your favourite pyjamas or night wear. We will be curling normally each game.

The cost for each player to participate is $5.

Each team is asked to bring a prize for the raffle table. Tickets will be $2 each or 3 for $5. Wava will hopefully do her $50 board as well for $2 a square.

A bar is available. Curling etiquette says that the winners buy the losers their drinks. Also there will be a hog pot - 25 cents each time you don't go over the hog line. Your name goes in the draw and some lucky hogger will win the money.

A dinner will follow the bonspeil beginning at approximately 5:45. The cost is $15 a person. Significant others are welcome. It is being catered by the Farmhouse Grill. It will be chicken, potatoes, caesar salad, rolls and dessert. Please let me know by email or at curling this week if you are coming. Paula needs numbers by this weekend.

We have decided to give prizes to the first four teams and the bottom team.

After dinner we will hold our general meeting. The executive for next year and any ideas or changes that need to be made will be decided as well.

Thanks ladies. It has been a great season so far and we are looking forward to a great bonspeil.

See you on the ice.

Sherri, Karen and Andrea

Christmas Social

Wow it is hard to believe it is December already. We are nearing the date of our annual Christmas Social gathering. Check your schedule for when you curl as it is 1 hour games with each team playing 4 ends.

We have posted a list to sign up for a snack to bring on Thursday, December 18th which is the night we will be getting together. We have made it an individual sign up so that each person can bring what they want and the team does not have to coordinate unless you want to sign up for one thing as a team.

As well we will be doing a Silent Auction. Each person is asked to bring something. It does not have to be purchased. It could be anything you have at home that you no longer want to need but you think someone else might like. All the proceeds go directly to the Keene Business Ladies Curling. Don't forget to bring your cheque book that night for all your awesome purchases. The Silent Auction will end at 8:30 pm in between games.

Ice, coffee, tea, plates, forks etc will be available but you need to bring whatever you want to drink.

Just for clarification the games we are playing that night do count on the schedule. Other years it has been just fun curling but we needed to use this night to get all our games in so we can still have a playoff round. So if you can't make it, it is important that you still get a spare.

Curling Fees

Please pay Andrea ASAP. It is $160 a person. If you are a team of 5 it is $640 a team and it needs to be divided up by how much each person on the team will be playing
