Curling with TCSC
TCSC Curling
TSCS Curling night. Great fun. We had a 30 min class then some lessons on the ice. Then we played a few sides and had dinner and drinks in the attached pub.
Curling is a sport invented in Medieval Scotland where stones are slid across the ice towards a target area which is separated into 4 concentric circles. Two sweepers influence the path of the stone by changing the state of the ice in front of it with brooms. (wiki- pedia)
Twin Cities Scottish Club Picnic
TCSC Scottish Community Picnic
Thank you to everyone who attended the TCSC Scottish Community Picnic, August 8th, at Moir Park.
We had a lovely time. We enjoyed a highland dance performance from dancers from MSCDA. The kids played games (sack race, musical chairs, Nuke ’em, waterballons and even Twister) and won prizes. The grown ups chatted and relaxed.
