2010....13th White's Drug Store Curling Classic

Last November, Kevin Martin and his team took home the big prize at the White's Drug Store Curling Classic at the Swan River Curling Club, in Manitoba's beautiful Swan River Valley.

Entries for the 13th annual $42,000 purse are arriving, nearing the critical 24-mark.  The Swan River Curling Club is a beautiful 6-sheet arena style rink, and ice maker Barry Tall makes the sweetest of ice, so organizers are expecting to reach 32.

There are memories of the 2008 blizzard that threw the White's for a whack - but that was a once-in-a-century fluke.  Kinda like JJ's in '05?

There are CTRS points for grabs here and Swan River Valley hospitality is unmatched. We'll post the teams soon.  Send your entries ($1000/team) to
