season will take place and other
special surprises are being
planned.

with the meals by other club

everything running smoothly.
Curling Club ends year, looks ahead to anniversary
On the mark
Saturday marked the end of the Brussels Curling Club’s 2014/2015 season and was part of
one of the busiest days at the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community Centre in recent memory.
The curling club was on the ice for the majority of the day before retiring to the centre’s
upstairs for dinner, while the centre’s auditorium hosted the Brussels Optimist Club’s annual
spring dinner and auction and the Midget AE Crusaders took to the ice for game two of their
provincial series with Lambton Shores. The club is now looking ahead to its 50th anniversary
celebration next month. (Shawn Loughlin photo)
