The open bonspiel was held on January 23 & 24 with 6 rinks entered. We would like to thank Lynn Schutte for the organization and supervision of the kitchen and preparing a wonderful supper for the curlers and the public. Thank you to Greg Ardagh for looking after the ice for the open. Thank you to all the volunteers who assisted in many ways.

The rink is open Wednesday evenings. We would like to see both sheets used not just one. Come out and join in the fellowship of curling. If we don't have more interest the question is raised why are we making ice? Fees are $70.00 or $10.00 per game.
Kids curling is in full swing. We have had eleven children out each week. It is great to see them have fun and learn the basics of curling. It is not too late to join if your child has not been able to make it yet. The fee is only $10.00
The kids are skating and seem to be enjoying this recreation. We do not have lights this year so we are limited to daylight skating. Make sure your family gets a chance to get out and try the new facility. A family user fee has not been established for this year but donations can be made to the Shell Lake Minor Sports.
Thank you goes out to the people who cleaned off the rink and flooded the rink to get it going. Aaron Ried, Don Garand, Larry Morris, Greg Potts, Greg Ardagh put on the first soakings. Greg Potts, Val Chaykowski, Keith Simonar, Tyrone Pott have cleared the snow off many times. The flooding has been done by Tyrone Pott, Ian Pott, Daniel Hillman and Trevor Shynkaurk. It is good to see people out and helping but remember this is your rink and we all need to do our part.
We are looking for a few of the items borrowed from the arena over the last few year ie. nets, hot flood, etc. If you have or know of the whereabouts please return to shack beside the outdoor rink.
