Chestermere/Indus Modified Mixed Bonspiel 2017

The Chestermere and Indus Curling Clubs hosted their Annual Combined Modified Mixed Bonspiel on January 27th, 28th, & 29th, 2017 . The qualifications to enter were that the Skip and Third must be of opposite genders. It was great to see teams with 3 Women and 1 Man, or 3 Men and 1 Woman as well as true Mixed teams with 2 Men and 2 Women competing in this Spiel. Teams alternated their draws between the two ice rinks, the ice conditions were great and the competition was very close with several games going to an extra end or needing a measure to determine the winner. The two clubs have a terrific relationship, and great fun was had by all! There were 24 teams vying for the top spot in 3 Events and in the end it was the Dupont team from Lethbridge that defended their title from last year by winning the A Event. Their team consisted of Skip – Nanette Dupont, Third – Bill Kohuch, Second – Shirley Kohuch and Lead – Val Leahy . The Lee team from Indus captured the B Event; Skip – Brent Lee, Third – Jocelyn Baxter, Second – Emma Gingras, Lead – Darren Schulz. The Hedin team from Chestermere took the C event; Skip – Kim Hedin, Third – Shauna Logan, Second – Michael Spies and Lead – Louise Spies.
