Bonspiels
One of the most social things we do is a bonspiel.
A day of curling, eating, visiting, and, yes, even drinking...
what could be better?
Look below for a list of our annual bonspiels and click the links to find out more!
2022/23 Bonspiel Season has yet to be confirmed. Dates below will be changed as they are confirmed.

Bras d'Or Lakes Stick Spiel

Stick curling is a skill.
All curlers can do it. Not all can do it well.

there are no sweepers to blame!

Silver Dart Bonspiel

The Blarney Stone,
Ladies Invitational Bonspiel
March 11, 2023
Four ladies went curling for fun
And wished that they could have won one.
They came to Baddeck
Couldn't curl worth a heck
And settled instead for the rum!

Hal Norton Closing Bonspiel
