So, did you here about the RockStar curling ? Could be really interesting and certainly can't hurt with advertising curling here. Yep, Bruce and Jon really do curl. Mrs. JHcurl has had some preliminary talks with their "people" to help them out at various times but nothing has every come of it.
The Francis Dykes 5 and under bonspiel was held this weekend and Nutmeg sent a team of newbies. They did fantastic and were the runner-up in the second event. Lost the first game and then went on a 4 game winning streak to reach the final. Lost in an extra end to Team Sethi from Potomac. Not bad for a group of guys that all started last year, congrats to Rob, Joel, Karl and Mike.
The Nutmeg-Plainfield friendly was also this past weekend. Nutmeg was victorious and we are returning with the trophy until next season. Thanks to all the Plainfield folks for their wonderful hospitality. Always a lot of fun down there.
Nationals start soon and Nutmeg is represented by Charrissa with her team of Janice, Nicole and Rachel. Have fun out there in Hibbing.
The Scotties also starts soon so Mrs. JHcurl will be watching her "favourite" team from Manitoba. She has been emailing with Cathy O. who is trying to convince her to come out to Regina.
Off to the Norfolk mixed this weekend for a bit of curling and a lot of fun. They only have ten teams but it will still be a good party I am sure.
later,
JH

Your Nutmeg guys did fantastic and we were sorry to have to beat them! As Jason told them, they are 10 times better than we were as two-year curlers. We had a blast and definitely credit our playdown experience at Nutmeg for our second event title. We even took a fifth end beer break in tribute to our playdown buddies.
Obligatory plug: don't forget to sign up for the Cherry Blossom Bonspiel at Potomac, March 27-30. We're limiting the number of Potomac teams this year, so come on down!

HEy JH...regarding rock star curling...we were contacted inquiring if we'd be willing to leave our ice in until end of MAY!
Not on our dime I would think!

Brian, yeah the Nutmeg team was disappointed but thrilled with the result. They need to play together a bit more next year.
JL, that would be cool. Who contacted you, NBC or Carr-Hughes?
I believe it was mktgparners. With warmer temps outside, I gotta think it would cost 2K a week to maintain ice until Memorial Day.
10 teams at Norfolk = no Thursday start! What will you do?
