On Jan. 21 the Neepawa Curling Club held their annual Youth Bonspiel. We had an excellent turn out with a total of sixteen entries in two divisions. There were six teams for the 17 and under division and ten teams for the 14 and under division. It was great to see the curling rink so busy with that many youth curlers and their supporters. Overall it was a very successful bonspiel with really good curling and sportsmanship on display.

The Curling Club’s Concession operators Jackd Catering (Gary and Marsha Forgue) kept everyone fed with some amazing food, as they always do. The Neepawa Youth Bonspiel was sponsored this year by The Neepawa Veterinary Clinic, Tim’s Plumbing and Heating, Pedersen Farms and Tridekon.   Neepawa Esso, Neepawa Home Hardware and Neepawa Gladstone Co-op donated prizes for the curlers. Thanks to these businesses for supporting the bonspiel! The bonspiel will take place around the same time next year and can be found on Curl Manitoba’s event calendar on their website.
