North Battleford curler excited for ‘thrill of a lifetime’ at Brier
It will be a phone call Sydney Winterholt will never forget; and for good reason.
The grade 10 student from John Paul II Colligate was one of just 64 junior curlers from across the province selected to be part of SaskEnergy Future Stars. Because of that selection, Winterholt will be paired up with teams at the Tim Horton’s Brier at Regina’s Brandt Centre at Evraz Place from Mar. 3 to 11.
Winterholt said when she received the invitation last month, she couldn’t contain her emotion.
“I was so excited when I got the call inviting me to be a part of the Future Stars,” Winterholt said. “I started crying and I called my mom and she couldn’t understand anything I was saying.”
