[ -- = > belly Penetanguishene Curling Club News by Bill Howard The following is a short report on the "Go For Gold" Promotional Seminar held at Toronto, June 5, 6 and 7, 1987. David Gravelle and Bill Howard attended the event for the Penetanguishene Curling Culb along with 72 other curling club members from coast to coast. "Go For Gold" was sponsored by the Canadian Curling Associa- tion, the Canadian Ladies Curling Association, and various other organizations and businesses. The main theme was to highlight the upcoming Olympics at Calgary in February of 1988. The eyes of the world will be on Canada and what a great oppor- tunity to promote the game of curl- ing at the world level, the national level, and at the club level. Your delegates to this seminar came away with a wealth of infor- mation-to pass on to you. Please feel free to contact David or | for input. Here is a brief outline of some of the weekend's action. The keynote address was made by Jack Donahue, Canada's Na- tional Basketball coach. While humorous, the speach passed along an important message: '"'If you don't know where you're giong, you'will end up someplace else."

Curling Calendar The Saturday morning session began with Ray Turnbull speaking. We all know Ray as a commentator for the Sports network. As a matter of fact, Ray was involved in 46 televised games during the 1986-87 season. Ray is also a top level curler who won a world cham- pionship in 1965 when playing for one of the great curlers af all time, Terry Braunstein. The title of the next speech was as interesting as the persons who did the talking. Calgary Olympic Circus Maximus was presented by Patti Vande, the Technical Director of the Manitoba Curling Association and the Manitoba Ladies Curling Association. Patti was also a top level curler winning the 1974 junior women's championship and the Canadian Ladies' in 1978. Her cohort was Canada's represen- tative at the upcoming Calgary Olympics, Linda Moore. Linda is the Development Co-ordinator of the British Columbia Curling Council. Their message: We should be promoting curling at the grassroots level. And, their main point is once you get the new curler into the club make sure they have fun...fun is the name of the game. They also passed along important infor- mation on promotions and surveys and how they can pay off. Doug Mawell, the Publisher of S&S | Goblins night. More info on this on the way.
