“It’s honestly an honour. There’s a lot of amazing stories out there, so to have ours recognized nationally, definitely means a lot to our family and it’s so great to get the word out about our bonspiel,” share MacDonald.

“I just like to say thank you to everyone who supported our story, everyone at the Canso Curling Club who keeps this event going year after year. This Bonspiel is about family, community and keeping huge tradition alive.”

You can vote for their story on the Curling Day in Canada website.

The contest winners will receive a trip for four people to the 2027 Brier in Saskatoon.
