Update: the weather is looking great for Saturday’s Curling Day in Stratford! Town staff will be applying a final flood on Friday morning prior to the rings and hacks being installed.
The weather for Sunday isn’t looking great so we will just be going with a one-day event on Saturday from 10-5. Anyone who had expressed interest in dropping by on Sunday is welcome to join us on Saturday. No cost to participate and the event is open to all ages and abilities.
Curling Day in Canada is coming up on February 27. In celebration of this event, a group, in partnership with the Town of Stratford, will be hosting free outdoor curling at the Pondside Park outdoor rink, 15 Stratford Road, on Saturday, February 27th from 10 am to 5 pm.
