Curling Sponsor Appreciation Night and Mixed Bonspiel bring community together

On Friday night, Jan. 25, the Tofield and area community got together at the Curling Rink to celebrate their sponsors and to begin a three-day curling weekend as they participated in the Annual Mixed Bonspiel.

The Tofield Curling Club’s vice-president Sandra Codd said, “We value each and everyone one of our sponsors and are very appreciative of their support.”

Among the major sponsors that help the club running are Tofield Spirits, Tofield Eyecare, IGA and NAPA, just to name a few, according to Codd.

“The biggest challenge that the club faces is increasing our membership,” Codd added. “We also need younger community members to join and guarantee that we will have a curling club in the future, and pass the baton when the time comes.” . . . contd.
