    Mike McEwen (Jim's hero) is in the house today!

    Today joining us In The House is Mike McEwen. What’s Happening Around the Curling World? This past weekend a major competition for men was held in Penticton in the way of the NuFloors Penticton Classic. There aren’t any foreign teams in the event but it did feature five of Canada’s best we will review. The Pan Continental Championship started last Sunday in Lacombe, Alberta and this is an important event because it qualifies a number of teams for the 2025 Women’s and Men’s World Championships….Canada is represented by Brad Gushue and Rachel Homan. Hot Rocks Topics. The Pan Continental Championship started a few days ago and in a couple of weeks the European Championship will start and in both cases teams are being qualified for the 2025 World Men’s and Women’s Championship. In all probability the Pan Continental will qualify (six – we will explain) and the Europeans seven of the 13 teams. But at the WC Congress in September a thought was put on the table…..is there a better way of doing this? So, today we have an email but we have also gone to our FB Group where someone asked about the Pan Continental being on television and it got 109 comments. Curling Moments to Remember - A look back into curling’s rich history. Each week either Kevin or Warren will relate back to an experience or observation to something that has happened in curling’s rich history. Today Kevin will bring us a great curling moment.
