TerraceBC curling team attends the Special Olympics
The Terrace team of curlers competed in the recent Kamloops Special Olympic games, which ran from Feb. 2 to Feb. 4.
“The Special Olympics is so great because not only is it good for the athletes’ physical health, but it also really can’t be understated how good it is for their mental health as well,” said Walker. The curlers practice once a week from October, when the curling rink opens, until March. Competition can be hard to come by, so the Special Olympic games are very important to the athletes.“We have a hard time finding competition here because there aren’t many teams in our area, and the distances are pretty great,” said Dale.
