A team of four local curlers has advanced to the senior women’s provincial playdowns in Blind River at the end of February.
Judy LaBelle and her rink of Nancy Evans, Mary-Beth Tkachuk, and Trudy Badiuk finished in a tie for first place at 3-2 at the inter-regional playdowns in Fort Frances last week.
Congratulations, girls, and all the best in Blind River!
