Oct 31
10 am - 4 pm: Bonspiel Games. Get in the Halloween spirit with 4-ended games in full costume. And the scoring system might just be as tricky as the trick-or-treaters…
4 pm - Closing: Announce results, socialize, and enjoy the festive decorations and atmosphere in the Granite Mug Lounge. Results will be announced and a few treats may be in store, but there is no formal dinner or awards ceremony afterwards, in order to allow parents to curl and still go out trick-or-treating.
