Dorothy Brockbank donates family pin collection

Dorothy Brockbank donated her parent’s pins to the Oakville Curling Club and I created a display of them for the club. I organized them by area and found that the majority were from Ontario and Scotland so I painted Ontario and Scotland on the background and attached the pins. Pins from the States are below Ontario and Western Canada is on the left and Eastern Canada on the right. Elsewhere in the world is below Scotland.

New to Curling?

Thinking of trying the sport of curling?

Curling is a unique sport that requires both skill and strategy. It is often referred to as chess on ice. It is a lifelong sport that can be learned at any age. Whether playing in a fun league or in a competitive ladder the emphasis is always on sportsmanship and fair play. Being a social sport by nature, it is not uncommon for teams to socialize off the ice where lasting friendships are often made.
