NB curler attempting to play 100 game in 100 rinks

Here's the story of Rob Swan who curls at the two-sheet club in Harvey Station, N.B., who wants to focus some attention on small-town curling clubs. Many, Swan says, are facing difficult times as they struggle financially with dropping memberships and much-needed repairs. 

To do this, Swan is going to try and play 100 game in 100 different clubs over the next few months. He'll wrap up at the Tim Hortons Brier in Calgary, where he'll just watch, not play. 

“I have emailed approximately 120 curling clubs across the country, asking for one game, no money, just the one game, and our supporters here in the curling club are out getting sponsors,” says Swan.

“We don’t want to lose this club. In this area alone, we have had three clubs go under for whatever reason, they could not survive. This club is going to survive and we’re going to make sure it carries on for years.
