Junior Curling
The Prince George Golf and Curling Club needed a new volunteer to run the Junior Curling program in the 2015-16 Curling season. This was my first season as junior curling coordinator, and my responsibilities included finding volunteer coaches, volunteer coaching, finding sponsors for the program, and planning fun days for the curlers at Christmas and the end of year party. Over the 18 weeks of the program I saw each kid develop their skills and love for the game. I am excited to run the program again next season.

'For the Love of Curling' Charity Bonspiel
|
The first annual 'For the Love of Curling' Charity Bonspiel took place during the 2015-16 season. The bonspiel ran with a six team round robin format taking place over 24 hours. We fund-raised $920 for the Sandra Schmirler Foundation. Some plans for the second annual 'For the Love of Curling' bonspiel include discontinuing the 24 hour format, changing the time of year of the spiel, possibly having a brunch on the Sunday with a silent auction, and finding some additional sponsors. A big thank you to the bonspiel sponsors from our first year, Mr Mikes Steakhouse, Ken's Goldsmithing, Auto Magic, and Fore Bistro.
