CALGARY – Geri-Lynn Ramsay has waited a long time to curl back on P.E.I.

Ramsay, who moved to Calgary following the 2010-11 season, will return to her hometown of Summerside for this week’s Players’ Championship – the final event of the Grand Slam of Curling for the 2013-14 season.

“I’ve been wanting to curl on P.E.I. ever since we missed out on the Scotties the year after we did well, and it (Scotties) was in Charlottetown,” said Ramsay. “It’s been a few years coming getting back to playing in front of the Island crowd.”

“I can’t wait,” added Ramsay, who came through the junior curling program at the Silver Fox Curling and Yacht Club in Summerside. “Not only have I been waiting to go to a Players’ Championship since I started playing women’s, but the fact it is in Summerside and I just missed it the last time it was there (two years ago), it is pretty exciting.”
