Jim Elliott in the hack, gets ready to take his shot with his push stick. There is a curling program at the Port Perry Curling Club that is designed strictly for seniors. Curling takes place on Monday, Tuesday and Friday mornings at 9 a.m. A senior is defined as anyone 50 and over. This program is very unique in that an individual does not become part of a fixed team. Individuals are placed on a team (a different team every time participat- ing) each time they show up. The benefit of this arrangement is that if you are absent, you need not get someone to take your place. Being absent does not create a problem. Another unique feature is the use of a push stick for those individuals who have physical limitations. The push stick allows you to deliver the stone from an upright position. This is becoming very popular and is even used in regular competition play. This has also helped to maintain membership en- rolments. The senior program has curlers who are their late 80s. So, yes – you can do it too!! If you feel that this activity would in- terest you and you would like more infor- mation, call John at 905-985-5153 or Glen at 905-985-8857. Either one can fill you in on all you need to know and do in order to take part. The emphasis of this program is friend- ship, camaraderie, purpose and exercise. Give John or Glen a call as they would probably allow you to come and curl once or twice free of charge. As for equipment, the club could outfit you for this trial period. If you have never curled, come and check us out. Viewing can take place dur- ing any of the times mentioned. Come and see! You may become inspired. What do you have to lose? C ME JOIN US
