Past-President Geoff Cudmore was joined by Club members and Operation Rednose volunteers, Janet Mathany and Antonina Durham to accept a cheque for $7,750.00 from Operation Rednose. This donation more than doubles the funds raised at our recent Curl for Kids bonspiel that was in support of Camp Trillium, Quinte SailAbility, and our Bayside Secondary Scholarship. We look forward to working with Camp Trillium to come up with this year's project.
The annual Curl for Kids bonspiel was held at the Quinte Curling Club on Saturday, February 1st. 12 Teams participated to raise funds for CAmp Trillium, Quinte SailAbility and our Bayside Secondary Scholarship.On Saturday, Feb 2, QSR once again hosted our annual ‘Curl for Kids’ bonspeil at the Quinte Curling Club.
A total of 10 teams raised a whopping $5200 which will be directed to local youth initiatives, including Camp Trillium. We were excited to welcome back Charlie Benson from the camp, who stopped by to accept a cheque for $10,000 - the amount our club raised during the recent Operation Red Nose season. In return, President Brigitte was honoured to receive a plaque from Charlie, thanking our club for all of our help over the years.
In addition to the Quinte Curling Club, QSR would like to thank the PR students from Loyalist College for their hard work leading up to - and during - our event. In addition, we’d like to thank our sponsors Maple Dale Cheese Inc and Sprague Foods for their generous (and absolutely delicious) donations to help feed our curlers.
Finally, a big shout-out to our team of QSR volunteers (and family) who helped ensure our event was a success.

Until next year...hurry hard!
