Three curling teams from Saugeen Shores will be sweeping and sliding their way into a provincial curling event as the 2017 New Holland Elementary School Curling Championship gets underway at the Chesley Curling Club March 23 to 26 for elementary school students from Grades 1 to 8.

Northport Elementary School, St. Joseph’s School and École Port Elgin Saugeen Central School will join nearly 400 curlers from over 70 elementary schools from across across the province, including several teams from Bruce and Grey counties.

The tournament, now in its 30th year, has not taken place in Grey Bruce for 15 years and curlers will receive a commemorative jacket, souvenir program and are guaranteed a minimum of four games of curling.
