Manitoba cashed two in the fourth on a picture- perfect Jones out-turn come-around tap on the button, but Alberta bounced right back with three on a routine takeout after Jones failed to get an intended roll behind cover. Jones blanked the sixth but nosed a hit in the back ring in the seventh to settle for a tying single. In the eighth, with Manitoba angling for a big theft, Nedohin executed a precise kill, hitting into a pocket of two Manitoba rocks in the four-foot after Jones had rubbed a guard with her last. Jones then blanked the ninth and an Officer freeze appeared to have a winning deuce set up in the 10th until Nedohin negotiated a path past a couple of guards for a double-kill. Jones then bur- ied perfectly on the button, Nedohin was forced to draw to it leaving her opponent locked in for a tie, with a hail-Mary raise for the win which didn’t come off.

The Kruger name is identified with leading bathroom tissue, paper towels, facial tissue and paper napkin brands in Canada. Canada long ago distinguished itself as the number one curling nation. It’s acknowledged throughout the world that nowhere is competition as keen and the path to the top so strewn with obstacles as in Canada. At the 1988 Winter Olympics held in Calgary, curling was a demonstration sport. The Canadian Women's team, skipped by Vancouver's Linda Moore, the 1985 World Champions, captured the gold medal. Julie Sutton's team from Victoria, the winner of the 1991 Scotties Tournament of Hearts, represented Canada at the 1992 Winter Olympics in France.

  • February 2006
    Newsletter of the London Curling Club February 2006 SCOTT TOURNAMENT OF HEARTS Rock Talk has been told that 120 London Curling Club members have signed up as volunteers at this year’s Scott Tournament of Hearts. Congratulations on such a great turnout! To all of you, and all LCC members who attend 1986 Memories … this year’s STOH, Rock Talk presents a … 2006 challenge!! Please capture special memories of your 2006 “Scott” experiences … either by photo (see the accompanying photo from 1986) or in words (a short anecdote or humorous story) … and share them with our readers in the March issue. You’ll find RT contact and deadline details on page 2. Thanks to LCC member Karen Lowry for sharing this photo of the presentation ceremonies from the l986 London STOH. The somber expressions on the faces of Team Canada members are evidence of their disappointment at losing the championship event to Team Darte, skipped by Marilyn Darte (now Bodogh). Members of Team Canada that year were Linda Moore, Lyndsey Sparks, Debbie Jones and Laurie Carney. Rae Moir was their coach. Karen Lowry was the team driver and is pictured here holding the flag. Former LCC member Jeanne Mcdonald was sign holder. Karen, Jean and dozens of other LCC members dedicated many hours of volunteer time to the l986 STOH. February is “Hearts” month!!
