   Sixth Annual Early Bird

Open Bonspiel

 

The BG Curling Club kicked off its 2008-2009 season with the Early Bird Open Bonspiel on Saturday, September 27 and Sunday, September 28.

 

Twenty-four teams from several states and Canada competed on Northwest Ohio's only curling ice at the BGSU Ice Arena both Saturday and Sunday.

 

The finals were Saturday afternoon with BGCC teams winning both the "A" and the "B" finals.  BG's Freeman rink defeated the Kortebein rink from Knoxville, Tennessee, and  BG's Piroth rink won against the Buchanan rink from Shelbourne, Ontario.

 

The "C" game was won by the Orpwood rink from Toronto, Ontario over the Pearson rink from the newly formed club in Indianapolis, Indiana, and the "D" final saw the Roberts rink from Detroit defeat the Klein rink from Dundas Valley, Ontario.

 

Thanks to Rob Feigner for organizing this event and to Jim and Karen Hojnicki for providing the food that makes this event so special. Also, thanks to all of those who volunteered to make this event a success.
