STOUGHTON - The Crossroads Inn Bar and Grill held the last bonspiel of the year at the Stoughton Curling Rink on March 9.

Eight eager teams showed up to have some fun with the glow-in-the-dark curling.

This event has taken place for several years, and Chris White, owner of the Crossroads Inn Bar and Grill, said it is always a lot of fun.

Games had four ends and prizes were given for the worst team that played, the best team with highest score, and the best-dressed team.

Glow games encourage players to wear clothes that light up when the black lights are turned on. The rocks also receive special covers so they can be seen sliding down the ice.

White said they always have a great turnout and those that attend are looking for a fun day out.

Most of the teams came from the Stoughton area, with some wearing tutus and others in Teletubbies outfits. The colours could be seen clearly across to the other end of the ice.

At the end of the day, participants enjoyed a steak dinner with all the trimmings at the Crossroads, where the laughs continued throughout the evening.

They look forward to doing it all again next year.
