LAKESHORE CURLING CLUB: 50TH ANNIV. – CONGRATS.
PAUL WOZNEY « » : It’s a pleasure to stand today in recognition of an organization which for over two decades has helped make Sackville a hub of sport and recreation for all. The Lakeshore Curling Club, established in 2003 at the Sackville Sports Stadium, maintains a six-sheet facility and a membership list of over 500.
The club routinely hosts all echelons of curling, from Fun Spiels to provincial and national championships. More than an accomplished host, Lakeshore is a training ground for greatness felt across the country. Lakeshore players have been fixtures about the Canadian Under-18 Curling Championships and Canadian Wheelchair Championships in recent years and the club counts numerous current brier players amongst its alumni.
Speaker, I ask that all members join me in thanking the Lakeshore Curling Club for creating a community meant for curlers of all stripes advance from every end of Canada.
