We went to our first Bonspiel in Triumph, IL the first weekend of March: The 2011 Waltham Mixed Bonspiel! Our team from the St. Louis Curling Club tried our best and had a great time!! Three of our four teammates, (Jamie, Lucas and Steve) had only been curling since January! That's amazing. Our Skip, Nancy, is a seasoned curler and did a fabulous job coaching us along and losing gracefully. :) We played and lost three games in total. But it's okay, because we had a blast and made several friends in the process! We even curled against an Olypian!!
Here is our team! Go St. Louis!!
Lucas, Steve and Nancy in front of the ice! Luckily the Waltham Curling Club has a heated room with seats in view of the ice. Also available - lots of food and beverages.
Another pic of a game....
And here's Lucas on the ice. I should be getting ready to sweep, but instead I am taking pics of Lucas. :)
