Bonspiels & Events
There is a number of events held by the Sinners section throughout the year.
Turkey Shoot (December 18/11). We play a fun game with special rules in each end. For example, play out-turn only or no take-outs.
Sinners Brier (March 3/12). Annual Bonspiel that is so popular that the last years participants almost always come back. This year we will organize this event for the 51st time.
Home-and-Home exchange with Port Perry (dates TBD). Once a year 4 teams visit our friends at the Port Perry Curling Club to play a friendly game, and then their six team pay a visit to us.
