The FFCC enjoyed a fun filled weekend at the Fenelon Falls Fair. Thanks to our volunteers, Katrina Slykhuis, Karen Thompson, Clive Walton and Almut Brenne-Davies for set up and/or staffing this event. Thanks, so much, to Faye McGee of Fenelon Agricultural Society for your tons of help, facilitating and welcoming, the Fenelon Falls Curling Club, to the fair. This was our first time and certainly not our last. Huge thanks to Mike and Zack Henry from Curl Ontario for bringing the Street Curling Tour to the Fenelon Fair. You both did such a wonderful job promoting the fantastic game of curling and I know all of the participants had “such a blast”. Also, thanks to all of our participants. We loved meeting you all and really enjoyed the interest and enthusiasm shown by both the many seasoned and curious visitors to our booth. We had over 200 curlers. This just goes to show that curling truly is for everyone!
