Trudie's last post from Timbits 2013:
12:28 PM - Too much excitement!
Both St. Peter's and McDougall won their final events. Both teams only lost won
game throughout the Bonspiel.
The team from Almonte that beat Matthew's team yesterday went on to win the
entire event. For the first time ever it was a high school that won. (Darn grade
seven and eights being placed in high schools).
St. Peter's other team also played in a final this morning. I do not have the
outcome of that event.
Lots of positive comments from people on our 25th anniversary Bonspiel and the
trophy. lots of kids and coaches still wearing our jackets.
A very good weekend,
Trudie
And from Andrea Tranter-Tiffin:
Skylar's team won the "B" Division Championship!!
They lost their first game and won the next 5! It was very unexpected,
but they played great. Jesse and Wryin's team played each other in game
5. They were both 2 & 2. Wryin's team won that game. They played
today in the final but lost.
8:53 AM - Good morning,
Last night Maddie's team won their final game, Nobel 1 won their final game and
Nobel 2 were runner's up in their event.
We are heading out shortly for the final eight which include St. Peter's and
McDougall 1.
I will email a final update on the way home.

7:06 PM - an explanation from Trudie:
It really isn't a flight system although it is. You are just placed under a
sponsor. St. Peter's lost their first game and have won the rest. They are
playing the team Matthew beat in his first game.
Now Maddie and both Nobel teams are playing in their sponsor finals. Maddie lost
three and won two. Now they are playing their sixth game. Nobel 2 lost, lost,
lost, lost and won their last game to go on. The other Nobel team won two like
Maddie.
Tomorrow Matthew is playing his fifth game in a final after losing only his
fourth game. The kids are happy!

5:18 PM - We are now in the finals.
Beatty 1 (Ben's team) were down 6-0 in the fourth end this afternoon and then
took a five ender in the fifth and a single point in the sixth to end in a tie
game. Unfortunately the other team won the draw to the button to win the game
and move on to the finals tonight.
Maddie's played Cassidy in a McDougall vs McDougall challenge. The game was
close until Maddie took the lead with a six ender. McDougall two moves on the
the finals tonight.
St. Peter's and McDougall will finish in the finals tomorrow at 10:00am.
I will check the rest of the finals tonight for Parry Sound teams.
Check in tomorrow,
Trudie
1:23 PM - Hello everyone,
Matthew's team lost their semi-final game. They stole 1 point in the first end
and then gave up four in the second end. A gutsy take out attempt by Matthew
could have given McDougall four but left Almonte with 1 point. Their skip drew
for a second point and they were up six one. In the next end Matthew took a
point. In the fifth and sixth ends the Almonte skip threw his rocks through the
house or took McDougall's out until they ran out of rocks.
Time to regroup. In this Bonspiel the two winners of the semi-finals go on to
the finals and the two losers square off for an award.
St. Peter's won their game with a measurement to go on to the finals of the B
event.
More news to come,
Trudie
10:35 AM - Hello everyone,
Ben's Beatty team just took a big win 7-1.
St. Peter's team? Won their game at 7:30 this morning. They are in the
semi-finals of the B event.
Stay tuned.

10:21 AM - Good morning everyone,
Matthew's team had a an early morning game. They were up 6-1 coming home in the
sixth.
The other team drew in, drew in, drew in, until they were sitting five. Rachel
missed her take- out shots and the crowd was getting excited. Matthew did a
double take-out to help us breathe easier. Rachel swept out the skips's rock to
ensure a 6-4 win.
Although both teams played well, the rocks were often at the back of the house.
It really was a skip's game.
McDougall two and three both lost to St. Peter's yesterday afternoon. They are
playing their do or go home game now, so I have to go.
Catch up with you later today. Matthew 's team play Almonte at 11:00. They are
pleased to be in the top four.

McDougall #1 (Matthew's team) encountered heavy, heavy ice in their first game.
Neither team got a rock over the hog line in the first two ends. By the end of
the sixth, it was 2-2 so the game went to skip's rocks. the opposing skip hogged
his rock. Matthew heaved his rock down the ice and managed to touch the top of
the rings for the win.
This McDougall team played their second game against Nobel and won 9-0.
McDougall #2 (Maddie's team) and McDougall #3 (Cassidy's team) lost their first
games. Both teams went on to win their second games 11-1 and 6-2 respectively.
Nobel #1 won their first game and then lost to McDougall. Nobel #2 only played
one game last night and I don't have the outcome yet.
Beatty (boys team) won their first game and lost their second. I need to catch
up with the Beatty girls.
Humphrey lost their first game, only getting three stones to the house on the
incredibly heavy ice first thing in the morning. They won their second game at
the curling club.
I need to catch up on St. Peter's games.
Stay tuned for update later today if technology works.
