Shout out to Gail Brown and the Road Sign Volunteers

I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to Gail Brown for her dedication and hard work in managing the road sign program. Gail, your efforts have not gone unnoticed, and they have made a significant impact on our club.

We would also like to extend our appreciation to the following teams who contributed their time and energy to put up and take down the signs on September 10 and September 17:

• Jim Quigley & Ron Talbot
• Rick Swinton & Dave Best
• Dave Boyle & Larry Hills
• Wendell Fisher & Jim Hammell
• Alan Bowser (our standby "spare" for take down)

A very special thank you goes out to Dave Madigan for his role in finding volunteers and organizing these teams. Your contribution has been instrumental in the success of this program and much appreciated by Gail.

The fact that we only lost seven signs this year is a testament to the experience and knowledge gained over the years in adhering to the city's sign bylaws. It's clear that Gail’s careful planning and dedication have helped us improve the effectiveness of our sign placements.

We also appreciate your efforts in charting sign placements on a city map and creating efficient driving routes. Your attention to detail has not only saved time but also made the process smoother for everyone involved.

Gail has been involved with the sign program since 2018 and managing it since 2019, and would like to pass the baton onto someone else.   If anyone is interested in taking over the sign program, we encourage them to reach out and let us know.  Gail’s knowledge and experience will undoubtedly be invaluable in ensuring a seamless transition.

Once again, Gail, thank you for your outstanding contributions to our Curling Club. Your dedication has played a crucial role in our member sign-ups and new recruitments, which are vital to the growth and success of our club.
