Each year, the Chinguacousy Curling Club recognizes one of its members with the Marv White Award at the year end dance. This award was first handed out in 1977 to honour Marv White who was one of the founding members of the club and died very shortly after the club opened in the early 1970’s.
The award is given to a member who greatly contributes to the betterment of the club and the game of curling both on and off the ice. It is awarded to someone who competes within the club with sportsmanship and enthusiasm and also acts as an ambassador for our club when competing elsewhere at bonspiels or OCA competitions. In addition, past Marv White Award winners have been seen around the club volunteering countless hours at the many events we host during the year. The plaques containing the entire past winners’ names are in the trophy case in the lounge.
The selection committee at present consists of Juli Roslin, Diane Ketch, John Earl, and John Keast. As well, the last year’s recipient(s) are invited to be on the committee for the following year.
