L.C.C. has curlers from 7 to 97.
A Very Special Fellow
Saturday, December 5, 2009 was the
97th birthday of
our esteemed member
Lorne West.
Lorne curls in the
Daytime Men section at L.C.C. and
regularly attends. On the few occasions
that he does not curl, when one of us
says that we missed him on the ice, he
is known to say, "I'm sure glad to be
missed. When you aren't, you are in
serious trouble."
Lorne has curled since
he was very, very young. In the past few
years, Lorne has taken to the stick
delivery method and he is still drawing
the house with a delicate touch and
throwing in the occasional,
double-raise, take-out for variety. We
all love to have him on our sheet,
whether as a member of our team or on
the opposition.
Lorne is a tall,
strong, yet gentle person and a grand
fellow. We admire him greatly and
cherish his presence.
Our
97 year-old
recently spent some time with our 7
year-olds and others, giving them a few
tips about curling and tips about life.
Below, are photos of Lorne and our
Little Rock-ers and their coaches.

The Stick Curling Clinic on
October 24, 2009, showed as that there is a vaible
alternative to keep us curling in the years ahead.
The OCA provided great
instruction and our Leaside level one instructors were there
to support our stick users.
