Bruce and his gang have got the ice looking nice and we are just a few more floods away from “Throwing the Rocks”. I hope everyone is as excited as I am for the new season to begin. I am also looking forward to seeing friends and members that I only see during this time of year. .
Bob Fenson, father of Olympic curler Pete Fenson, suffered a stroke on Saturday Nov. 1. Bob has been a great source of information for the icemakers at our club. He has taken time from his busy schedule to tour our club and answer our questions and has helped us maintain our equipment. We wish him a speedy recovery.
