2022 USA CURLING MIXED NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP (Opening Ceremonies)

 In Rochester, NY!

Teams will test their mettle to win a medal.

Hubbub as all prepare to go out onto the ice.

More hubbub.

The ice crew discusses just how fabulous the ice will be for the matches.

Pensive piper prepares.

Onto the ice!

The unpied piper leads the participants.

Steve is available for your next function.  But you must pay the piper. www.leodpypz.com

Participants applaud.

Club President, Larry, speaks.

Norm has the honor of delivering the first stone. Norm is 95, and a hero to all!

Lisa provided a fine rendition of the National Anthem, regardless of the mask.

All participants are happy and ready to go, with the exception of Ebeneezer at the lower left.

And now for a few, but not all, team pictures.  See if you can guess from which state they hail.
