The BRCC Ladies wound up their Rock Of Ages Spiel yesterday with the A Event winner being Kelly Berry and her team from Sudbury. They won thier final against Eliott Lake's Jan Townes rink. The B Event winner was Anita Moran winning the final over Christie Hagger. The C Event was taken by Team Annie Austin winning their final over Beth Laderoute and the D Event winner was Lucy Ann Trudeau winning over Cathy Jensen. Great job once again by the BRCC in putting together a Rockin' good time. Events winners' pictures to follow.
NEW SKIP: Natasha Hallett. Skipped a team for the first time this weekend. They won their first two games and got knocked out in the dreaded Saturday night game. Excellent start to skipping for Natashia.
EXCELLENT VITTLES REVIEW: Ron Forest. Cooked up a mean prime rib supper for the Ladies Spiel. Received rave reviews. Certainly the consensus is that we keep Ron and his crew for this event. You just can't beat these guys in the food department. Awesome job Thanks alot Ron!
AMAZING BENEVOLENCE: Mike Landry and Crysta Murdoch. Mike got a donation from St Joe's hospital in Eliott Lake and donated it to the Bantam girls team (Team Horton). Not only did they do that, but he and Chrysta showed up on Sunday morning and cooked a plethora of burgers and hot dogs for the girls to sell at lunchtime. The initiative was over the top successful and as far as I have heard, they raised in excess of $300.00. Great job Mike and Chrysta.
SKINS WINNERS: Team Villeneuve. The BRCC Senior Mens competitive team recently went to Thessalon to play in the Skins Match. They ended up winning this tournament and all in all, had a very good showing. This squad will be returning to Thessalon this weekend to play in the Regionals....we're hoping to keep the momentum going!
YOUTH CHALLENGE PARTICPANTS: BRCC's Mia Smith, Cassie Smith, Avah Olsen and Hanna May went to play in a Youth Challenge in Sudbury this past weekend. These young curlers are doing everything right. They are practicing and participating in tournaments. Kudos to these young curlers for embracing the Roaring Game...they can do nothing else but improve. And kudos to the parents who get them there and foster their enthusiasm. Extremely cool.
BRCC MEMBER AT HEART: Kelly Berry. Kelly is still attending school in Sudbury and sits at or near the top of her class (no surprise there). Because of this, she is on a hiatus from the BRCC but that did not stop her from getting a squad together and bringing them to the BRCC to play in the Ladies Spiel. What's more, she made a donation to the prize table. This was unsolicited which makes this donation all the more special. Thanks alot Kelly!
TOP SPOT IN THE MENS: The Molson Exers (Team Keith Rouselle) are still on a roll. They have not lost a game since the second part of the season kicked off. Awesome job guys. They will have their hands full this coming Thursday as they square off against the Mitchell crew (current club champions).
INCREDIBLE IMPROVEMENT: Rhonda Kirby. I watched a couple of the Liz Rouselle games this weekend and Rhonda was playing second. She played absolutely super. She made some incredible shots. Very impressive display. Also, BRENDA DAUB was playing excellent in the vice position. It is no wonder that this squad is in the top spot in the Tuesday ladies.
MISSED: Al and Maymar Gemmell. Have not been seen around the BRCC for a while now as they are on a curling hiatus. You guys are missed! We think and talk about you all the time!
Rock On!

Hiatus is probably done - one always needs to recharge ones batteries. Will be back fighting to make BRCC better than ever, thanks to all those who want the same thing. Stay warm, embrace winter, we are Canadian after all!
