Jason Muise in Palliative Care

Posted by StanFong on Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010 at 10:54 pm

Fellow Glenmore members,

One of our members, Jason Muise, has been admitted to the West Island Palliative Care Residence which is located behind the Lakeshore General Hospital.

Jason has been a member of Glenmore for several years, and took to the sport of curling very quickly, and played whenever and with whomever he could, and was called upon to spare quite often!

As for visiting Jason, it is best to call there first as he cannot really speak well so his mom usually answers the phone. She would let people know if it would be okay to visit as visits are quite tiring for him, but he enjoys them all the same. His mom makes sure that the visits are spaced out.

If people would like to visit, they can contact Kendra Griffiths at k_g@videotron.ca and she will give you the phone number.


Jason is at the far right of the photo, here winning the Lakeshore event in Ste Anne's back in 2003.

Glenmore's Lady Masters team finishes 4th at Nationals!

Posted by StanFong on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 at 4:14 pm

From Mac Baines:

The Lady Masters team skipped by Lois Baines with third Mary-Anne Robertson, second Claire McDougall and lead Joan McNabb finished fourth out of 12 provincial representatives from across Canada. Competing in the national final at the Thistle-St Andrews Curling Club in St. John New Brunswick, they competed against several former provincial champions. They finished the dual round robin format with two wins and three losses, narrowly missing the championship round for teams placed first or second in each division. The Quebec representatives qualified third in their division and won their next two games against the other third place team from Northern Ontario and defeated British Columbia, the loser of the 3 vs 4 page playoff game, in the final. This novel format provided all the teams with extra games to determine overall standings while the finals were completed and was enthusiastically appreciated by all the curlers. Normally at national finals, once the top 3 or 4 teams are selected for the page playoff finals, the other teams either watch the final rounds or go sight-seeing and some choose to change their flights so they can return home early. Almost all the teams chose to stay to play and party with the other competitors and support the event. The Quebec team appreciated the support of their clubs, Glenmore and Pointe Claire and Lois and Mary-Anne particularly want to thank Glenmore and all its members for their financial support for teams competing in national competitions. As not all provinces and territories were represented in the Masters, this national competition is not supported by the Canadian Curling Association and so they do not pay for travel or accommodations. Curling Quebec provides a portion of the Masters competition fees as support to the provincial Masters representatives and the competitors must raise the remainder themselves. However, as you could imagine, the experience was priceless.
