Carbon family benefits from charity bonspiel

ALSCharityCheckPresentation

The Carbon and District Agricultural Society and Curling Club, with the help of Jaclyn and Drisden Cannings, held a charity bonspiel in support of ALS research and long-time member and volunteer Sheldon Watt, who was recently diagnosed with ALS. Friends and curlers from across the province came together in support of the Watt family between March 10 and 12 in Carbon, with a total of 16 teams playing in the charity bonspiel. The bonspiel raised $3,000 for the ALS Society of Alberta and $10,550 for the Watt family to help cover medical and home modification costs for accessibility. At the donation presentation were (l-r) Ag Society President Dustin Furst, Dresden Cannings, Sheldon and Laurie Watt, Kneehill County Division 2 Councillor Debbie Penner, and Jaclyn Cannings.
