Coming to Glenboro
The
Glenboro South Cypress Fire Department and the Glenboro Curling Club are proud
to be hosting the 51st Annual Manitoba Fire Fighters Curling
Championships from February 4th – 7th, 2010 at the
Glenboro Arena & Curling Club. With the cooperation of the Glenboro Arena,
the hockey ice will be transformed and the event will boast 6 sheets of curling
ice. The
bonspiel will commence on Thursday when approximately 25 teams will be bagpiped
in during the opening ceremonies. In addition to great curling, the participants
will enjoy a banquet evening on Friday, traditional Fire Fighters breakfast on
Saturday morning and some planned entertainment for Saturday evening. The
closing ceremonies will take place on Sunday evening. There will be three prize
events and an A and B event championship. The winners of the event will
represent Manitoba at the national championship in Regina, Saskatchewan in March
of 2010. To qualify as a participant, the
member must presently be volunteering, employed or retired from an active Fire
Department and have held a Fire Fighter distinction for at least 2 years. The
committee encourages our rural Fire Departments to enter teams and show their
support for this occasion. The deadline for entries is January 15, 2010. Accommodations in the area have been reserved, sponsors are signing on, and participants are already registering.
