‘Incredible’ event

Dear Editor:

On March 22, Curl for a Cause was held at the Fergus Curling Club and what an incredible day it was! 

Those who were there might tell you about the friendly curling games, being piped onto the ice by 16 pipers and drummers, the laughter throughout the day, and of course, the fantastic food (donated by Fraberts, Beef Farmers of Ontario and Zehrs). 

We were gathered for fun and curling, but the real winner of the day was the Aboyne Rural Hospice. Our incredibly generous community raised over $64,700! 

I write this letter with immense gratitude to every individual and business who curled, donated, purchased advertising and supported the auction and to all of those volunteers who worked tirelessly planning the day and making it run smoothly. Thank you! 

What an amazing community we live in.

Laura Hofer and Dr. Clarissa Burke,
Co-chairs, Curl for a Cause
