In the flat lands

Team Middaugh headed West for their third spiel in a row. Nice to play some western teams since the first two events featured mainly Ontario teams.

The team won their pool with a 4-1 record but lost to a fierce Russian squad in the quarter-finals, who eventually went on to win the event. The Schmirler Charity Classic is one of the best events on the women's circuit as the curlers are treated very well with their very own hospitality room plus a pizza/beer night and breakfast Sunday morning supplied by the Regina Inn. Thanks to Amber, Kenda and their committees for all their hard work and especially to the drivers (Herb, Harry, Keith, Doug) who always make us feel so welcome.

It was great to have so much Saskatchewan support from Jim and Sharon, Dave and Myrna, Leigh and Grant and their girls (Alyssa, Kaityln and Brittney) and Zeke and Gladie. It was great seeing everyone again and receiving so many hugs.
