CURLING NEWS

The 15th Annual Cassiar Bonspiel was a great
success again this year. The teams were
mainly local with some people who had
retired their brooms being called out at the
last hour. Outside rinks came from Clinton
Creek, Esco-Vancouver, Firestone-Dawson
Creek, General Enterprizes-Whitehorse, and
the Bob Baily rink came in from Watson.

Two Cassiar school rinks entered, Leo Duri,
Brian Caron, Denise Borsato and Lynn Samson
made up one team and Corrine Nitti, Don
Samson, Janice Zemenchik and Jeanne Maxson
made up the other. These kids were game

right through and gave their opponents
excellent competition and several dark
moments. Both teams won one and lost

two games.
