Registration open for Jam Pail Bonspiel
MEDICINE HAT, AB — Registration is now open for one of the city’s longest running traditions next month.
The 54th annual Jam Pail Bonspiel returns to the Kinplex on Feb. 21 and 22.
The event sees the Kinplex converted into 13 curling rinks, with more than 400 students from Grades 3-6 participating. The event was originally created to provide students with an activity during a Teacher’s Convention that week.
Grades 3 and 4 students play on Feb. 21, while Grades 5 and 6 play on the 22nd. The open category, which doesn’t have an age limit, is also available on the 22nd, giving families an opportunity to play the game together, or for people to try out the bonspiel. Teams in the open category need at least one adult on the team.
