• Help Curling in Iceland •
The Canadian/US committee that is working to help curling get
started in Iceland is soliciting donations from interested Icelanders
to assist with the project. Money is needed to purchase 16 pairs
of rocks at a cost of approximately $450.00 per pair (Cdn) plus funds to
assist in bringing four Icelandic curling enthusiasts to Canada for curling
clinic instruction and also to have a qualified ice maker go to Iceland to
instruct the local people in the art of ice making. Our target is to raise
$18,000.00.
Donations should be made payable to Logberg-Heimskringla and
sent to the paper along with a note specifying that the money is for the
curling project.We need your help to make this project fly.
