Established in 1961, this late April bonspiel is meant to be a fun outing to end the curling season. The seven-day event sees players of all skill levels compete in any combination of four (4) players. Novice curlers to "professional" curlers are all on the ice at the same time.
The emphasis is on fun and rubbing shoulders with the famous and not so famous. The important thing is to rub shoulders. Special event nights occur during the last few days of the spiel, live entertainment is supplied as well as a great closing night banquet.
Gordie Perry was an exceptional Ottawa Curling Club member who began this spiel in 1961. He was the last skip to win an "irons" play championship in 1950. An excellent athlete he played in the 1931 Grey Cup for Montreal when they won the national championship. He is also in Canada's Sports Hall of Fame, the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame, the New Brunswick Sports Hall of Fame, the Quebec Sports Hall of Fame and the Canadian Football Hall of Fame.
His spiel is still goes strong just like Gordie did – he lived to be 100 years young.
