The Leszynski rink won the C event. Members of that rink were – skip Casey Leszynski, Lorne Hersberger, Erin Feldkamp and Lisa Schrader.

Tammy Schwass of the club says 24 teams entered the bonspiel this year, on par with the figure in previous years.

"We did a beach theme, which was fitting, as a break from the snowy weather we had on the weekend," Tammy Schwass, who does communication for the Olds Curling club, wrote in an email. "Everyone seemed to really get into it, wearing flowery shirts, and some even wore shorts out on the ice."
