CARLYLE - The Carlyle Curling Club's Youth Bonspiel was held Jan. 25, with seven senior teams and six junior teams from southeast Saskatchewan.
The bonspiel was open for Grades 3-12, with the junior category for Grades 3-7 and the senior group for Grades 8-12.
Robin Brown was one of the coaches, and he said all the players had a great time.
There were prizes for the 50 curlers, along with a raffle and a pizza supper that was sponsored by Paul Delalleau from Veren Energy.
This was purely a fun event with no winners. Everyone went home with something.
The curlers brought lots of family and friends to cheer the teams on, making it even more fun for the teams.
Brown said there were so many teams from out of town and several of the kids could see friends from other towns, making connections and getting together to go to similar bonspiels in neighbouring towns.
Many local and area businesses sponsored the event, and the Carlyle group is very thankful to them for making this day possible.
A special thank you to the Carlyle District Lions Club for their support with the junior program.
