The fields are frozen, the roads are icy but that does not stop Division 35 from being active! Starting last week, every Friday afternoon for a month we are bused out to different locations in Maple Ridge or Coquitlam. It was our choice regarding where we went and what we would do there. The activities we could choose from included curling, swimming, bowling, rock climbing and gymnastics. I chose curling because it is something I have never tried and it is a Canadian sport. I have learned “curling talk” such as what is a rock and what is a T line. I have also learned that curlers actually are sweeping the ice so it is clean and smooth allowing the rock to glide further towards its target. We get to wear these funny rubber covers on the bottom of our shoes. They prevent us from slipping. It seems so boring when you watch curling on TV but it is actually quite fun when you experience it yourself. I look forward to learning and practicing more.
