The
fourth annual Curl-O-Rama charity curling event was held Saturday, February 17th, 2007
at the National Capital Curling Center.
All
proceeds went to to benefit The Lustgarten Foundation
for Pancreatic Cancer Research and The United Mitochondrial
Disease Foundation.
These
two charities are doing important work, and they can
use every dollar we raised.
What
is Curling?
Curling
dates to the 16th century, when Scottish farmers whiled
away dull, icy winters by sliding heavy granite stones
across frozen lochs. This was considered a really
good time. Curling first appeared as a demonstration
sport in the Olympic Winter Games in Chamonix, France,
in 1924. Curling made its Olympic medal debut at the
1998 Games in Nagano, Japan.
The
modern curling stone is made of highly polished granite,
concave on the bottom, allowing the stone to slide down
the ice and “curl” more than if it had a
flat surface. A plastic handle is bolted onto every stone
in order to deliver and release it. The game is played
between two four-member teams who use stones with different
colored handles.
No
prior experience is necessary to participate in the
charity event.
