The Cochrane Curling Club proved once again why their annual ladies bonspiel is a popular destination for curlers.

The 32-team sold-out event continues to offer a perfect blend of curling and fun for participants.

"I think it went spectacularly," says Guidel Ziegler, one of the organizers. "Everybody seemed to be having a wonderful time, and there was some amazing curling. Yeah, it was great."

With 32 teams, the schedule was tight, but they did make sure to set aside a little time for teams to flaunt their creative take on this year's theme of travel.

"We had some wonderful ones. We had the Jacques Cousteau team that was quite clever, and then there were some tacky tourists, and there were some Hawaiians. It was really good."

Barb Gibson praised the crew at the curling centre, their bonspiel sponsors and ladies' teams for their donations to the silent auction, and their many amazing volunteers.

"So much fun was had," says Gibson. "Great curling and friendship were shared by all. We hope you had as much fun as it was for us to put it on for all of you."
