An illegal photograph at Edinburgh Airport! Travel organiser Malcolm Patrick, Matt Murdoch and Team Captain Donald Whyte flew down on a different airline to Heathrow. The rest of us wondered if there was something they knew that we didn’t! All went well however on the first leg of our adventure. Experienced international traveller Bill Duncan pointed out that the boarding passes on all our boarding cards had “Hospitality” writ large along the top, so a band of gullible curlers followed him to the Maple Leaf lounge to take advantage of Air Canada’s renowned pre-departure hospitality service. Robin Copland was shoved to the front to explain just how important this party was, only to be gently informed that “Hospitality” was Air-Canada-speak for “back of the bus”! Collapse of case and a shame-faced backtrack through security ensued.

  • 150 Notable Manitoba Curling Teams
    150 NOTABLE MANITOBA CURLING TEAMS In honour of Manitoba’s 150 th Anniversary, the Manitoba Curling Hall of Fame and Museum has undertaken to identify 150 teams which played a significant role in creating (in the early years) and extending (in more recent times) Manitoba’s reputation for competitive excellence in the world of curling. Our list acknowledges teams from all competitive sectors from the high-profile junior and men’s and women’s teams to less well-known teams at the mixed, senior, and masters levels and even outside the association realm in the deaf, police and postal championship realms. All of these successful teams played roles in establishing Manitoba’s well-deserved reputation. We also acknowledge recent successes in the new discipline of Mixed Doubles but this historical perspective is focussed on the traditional four-person game. INVITATION TO THE PUBLIC TO ADD TO THE LIST: A total of 150 teams were identified initially. Subsequently two missed teams have been added so the list now includes 152 teams. There are many other teams across Manitoba’s curling history which also belong on a listing of this nature. Manitoba curling fans are invited to suggest other teams for inclusion. In most cases, the teams are included on this list on the basis of the team’s on-ice success in a single outstanding year OR across a series of years. In the latter case, we have acknowledged that so long as three people remained on a team from a previous recorded success – then it was still the same team.
