Hutch Bonspiel (in house) December 27 - 28, 2024

The “Hutch” Spiel is a fun bonspiel, named for Elmer Hutchinson, a member of the Peace Arch Curling Club in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. He and Jim MacNeil decided there needed to be a Bonspiel after Christmas that would provide exercise for everyone during the week of festivities and offer a change from a diet of turkey etc. The event, organized by the Senators, is open to all members of the Club and their friends and family.

PACC welcomed a full house of 16 teams to the 2024 Hutch Bonspiel.  This annual event is a once-a-year opportunity for family and friends, whether experienced curlers or new to the game, to get together for a fun time.

Curlers played two 6-end games on December 27 and one 6-end game on December 28 followed by a delicious luncheon catered by Candlelight Cuisine.
