OUR BCC BONSPIELS

This years bonspiel season could be considered very successful, near all of our 8 events were filled and brought many curlers from outside into the club, while also providing our club members with the opportuniy to curl with new and different people with whom they would not get the chance to curl with otherwise.

The success to filing bonspiels is in the promotion of the event so get your information in on your event for the 2013-14 so that our Master poster can be sent out to other clubs as soon as possible and prior to the next season.

Congratulations to John Munsie and his York Curling Club team for their exciting draw to the button win, to capture the 'A' side Village Inn championship over Uxbridge Curling Club's Kelloway foursome.

Other championship side bracket winners were:

'B' Dave Meidema - Bradford

'C' Lynn Williamson - Bradford

'D' Mike Donnelle - Bradford

This was the 23rd year for this ever popular Men's bonspiel which kept the club rocking all weekend. Thanks to Bill Jermyn and Terry McCarthy and their team of volunteers who worked hard all weekend to make it happen.

Final Results

As you are aware, every league member MUST do their share and volunteer one evening to do their bar duty. We have approx 8 bar duties to fill for January with some openings for February, March and April.

If you DO NOT do your bar duty, we will be cashing your cheques in April. Remember this keeps our costs down and for every bar duty that we don't cover we pay someone to come and do it.

Please do your part in keeping our membership fees as low as possible and sign up today. The sign up sheet is on the door to the Kitchen.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact Sue Dubois.

BEGINNER LEAGUE SPONSORS

The Bradford Curling Club Beginners League would like to thank and welcome the local Coffee Culture as the sponsor for the 2nd schedule of this year's play.

Coffee Culture is located at the north west corner of the main intersection in town and is a great place to go for a coffee, have a light snack or take in a lunch.

We would also like to thank our local M & M store who were a great sponsor for our first schedule and are also a major sponsor for many of our other events and bonspiels.

I am sure all curlers realize just how big a sponsor M & M is at the National level and we are pleased that the local store follows in their footsteps.

The BCC Beginners League is in it's second year of play and offers curling to those who are new to the game and want a place to play on an equal footing with their peers.

We are pleased to announce the Bradford Curling Club has been chosen, in memory of the late Superintendent Mark Grant, to receive a defibrillator as part of the Canada's 911 Ride Foundation.

Superintendent Grant was a 32 year member of the York Regional Police force and a member of the Bradford Curling Club, as a curler on Frank Badowich's Monday CYOR team , who at the age of 54 died as a result of a motor vehicle accident

The Canada 911 Ride Foundation hosts an annual police escorted motorcycle ride to raise funds and awareness of the foundations causes. These include helping families of fallen emergency services workers, helping children who have been victims of violent crimes, as well as working in conjunction with the MIKEY Network to make defibrillators more readily available to save lives.

The Canada 911 Ride Foundation will also donate a plaque in memory of Superintendent Grant to be hung beside the defibrillator.

As part of the agreement the Bradford Curling Club will be required to have several club members undergo training on the proper usage of this defibrillator.

The Bradford Curling Club would like to thank both the Canada 911 Ride Foundation and the MIKEY Network for providing this valuable equipment to our club.
