  • Final Report for the 2018 Pinty's Grand Slam of Curling, Princess
    Municipality of Chatham-Kent Finance, Budget and Information Technology Services Information Report To: Mayor and Members of Council From: Mike Turner – Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer Date: December 17, 2018 Subject: Final Report for the 2018 Pinty’s Grand Slam of Curling, Princess Auto Elite 10 Event ______________________________________________________________________ This report is for the information of Council. Background In July 2017, representatives from the Chatham Granite Curling Club approached administration with a proposal to bring the Princess Auto Elite 10 - Grand Slam of Curling event, (the event), to the Thames Campus Arena. This international event brings together the 10 top-ranked female and male curling teams in the world. On August 11, 2017, representatives from Sportsnet, reviewed, and approved Thames Campus Arena as an acceptable venue for the event. In September of 2017, Council approved guaranteeing the hosting fee of $160,000, payable from the net proceeds of the event to Rogers Media Inc. This guarantee only comes into play after the net proceeds of the event are confirmed and if they are not sufficient to provide the hosting fee payment. Council also supported that $10,000 be provided to the Curling Committee to market and promote the event within the host community. Council also approved an additional $40,000 be provided toward supporting the event. These funds were directed towards producing a successful international event, with Chatham-Kent benefiting from the national and local marketing campaign that includes commercial spots, in-ice logos, and rink board advertising, all broadcast in over 20 hours of international television coverage on Rogers Sportsnet. Sportsnet’s promotion of the Municipality for the months prior to and during the event was invaluable.

  • 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.

  • February More on This Year's Scotties and Brier
    The Hack & Back October Club Executive February More on this year’s Scotties and Brier News that Curling Canada has officially announced it is looking at 18- Club Executive team fields for the Tim Hortons Brier and Scotties Tournament of President Hearts this year was met with applause by teams that were worried Calum McGeachie about being left on the outside, looking in, at the Calgary bubble. “It president@ferguscurlingclub does appear to be great news,” Winnipeg skip Mike McEwen said Wednesday. “We’ll just have to wait a little longer for the official in- Vice-President vite in black and white. We’re amazed at the extent Curling Canada and TBA its partners have gone to identify the need for a small expansion.” In recent years, the Brier and Scotties have been played with 16-team Past-President fields, which include representation from 14 member associations, the Bonnie Talbot returning champion (Team Canada) and one wild-card team, which is determined by a wild-card game on the night before the event begins. Treasurer Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the curling season in Canada has Steve Graham been completely disrupted, but Curling Canada has announced plans to play major championships in a bubble environment in Calgary, starting Secretary on Feb. 20. Deb Wilson Different thinking was needed to fill out the fields for those events because many provinces and territories have cancelled their provincial Club Directors championships and are naming last year’s winners as representatives. Dale Beirnes Curling Canada is now saying that all 14 provinces and territories will Richard Booy be represented — there was a concern that some wouldn’t be able to John Ferguson send teams — and each event’s Team Canada (skipped by Newfoundland Brian Gibbon and Labrador’s Brad Gushue, and Gimli, Man.’s Kerri Einarson) are Bob Grant ready to participate as well.
