On Saturday October 25th, the RVH Foundation partnered with CHARTWELL QUAIL CREEK and the Renfrew Curling Club to host our first ANNUAL RVH “ROCKS” Curling Bonspiel. The Team at CHARTWELL QUAIL CREEK were onsite to participate and also to feature Chartwell Quail Creek and the many services it has for it’s residents.
Everyone on hand was treated to an amazing lunch and dinner prepared and served by the Renfrew Curling Club and everyone had a great day of curling, laughs and community connection! Not only were the curling athletes required to be competitive on the ice but also had to play a loud and energetic game of CORNHOLE and show their skills with a golf club in the putting challenge. All scores were added together, along with additional points being awarded for NEW CURLERS on each team and the results are as follows:
Bragging rights for FIRST PLACE in A and FIRST PLACE in B were:
