2017 New Holland Prairieland Curling Camp Awards

What an amazing week it was at the Evergreen Centre in Nipawin as it was host to 192 young curlers from across the province! A lot of fun, laughs and good times were had by the campers working to improve their curling game with some of the best instructors from around the province as well as guest instructors from around the country! Thank you to all campers, parents, staff, and other helping hands around the town of Nipawin that made the 31st Annual Prairieland Curling Camp a success. Another thank you to New Holland as they stepped in as the new title sponsor for the camp this summer, which simply could not have been possible without their generosity and support along the way!
