CURLERS - YOUNG AND YOUNG AT HEART

 
The Rotary Club of Welland hosted its 3rd Annual Curling Social on January 28, 2020. Seventy people attended, many of which were not directly related to a Rotary family. There were participants from age 16 to 93 (of course that was Fred Farnham).
 
14 rinks faced off in a round-robin set of games. The Welland Curling Club provided instruction for the many participants who were first-time curlers. One rink of Fonthill Rotarians, two Special Olympic rinks and 3 rinks of Elementary School teachers and principals joined in the fun.
 
After curling, everyone retired to the lounge for wings, pizza, drinks and socializing. From all accounts, everyone enjoyed their experience. The new tradition will continue in 2021!
