The Celebrity Funspiel gave regular curlers the opportunity to have fun curling with the Pros on Thursday night at Highland Curling Club raising over $11,000. The Silent Auction was held at St. Thomas Curling Club. Thanks to over 50 generous donations and those who took part in the silent auction, the proceeds will support the Care and Cure of Breast Cancer. As the Cashspiel progressed and teams were eliminated, Monday’s final was the best the event has seen. The Sherry Middaugh team from Coldwater and Patti Lank team from Niagara Falls, New York, put on a 3½ hour thriller at the London Curling Club…There were triple and double takeouts, negotiating narrow ports time and time again. Team Middaugh won in the 11th end, taking home $11,000 and was presented with the Donna Arnold Memorial Trophy. The Cashspiel was a qualifying event for the Canada Cup of Curling and a World Curling Tour Event.

  • March 2020 Events a MESSAGE from the PRESIDENT
    1 Upcoming St Thomas Curling Club News March 2020 Events A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT Where to start, well let’s just say it’s been a year. While I believe that everything we had planned went very smoothly on the surface it was not without its challenges. It was sort of like a swim- ming duck. All looks very peaceful on the surface but underwa- ter things were moving at a furious pace. Just a few weeks before the Provincials, I was called into the Annual kitchen by the ladies league and informed that the dishwasher General was making funny sounds. A service call resulted in the information that a new pump was required for the dishwasher Meeting and it might seize and stop working at any time. A new pump Date and Time was ordered and it was installed only days prior to the Seniors. During the installation a rusted locking nut was discovered and, To be announced of course, it broke during installation.
