Nice weather for crokicurl

Beautiful weather on a February Saturday meant it was a great day to get out and enjoy some outdoor fun in the city. For Celeste Johnson, Shayla Hunter, Dylan Thompson, and Bernard McDonald that meant giving crokicurl a try at Heritage Heights Park.

Beautiful weather on a February Saturday meant it was a great day to get out and enjoy some  outdoor fun in the city.

For Celeste Johnson, Shayla Hunter, Dylan Thompson, and Bernard McDonald that meant giving crokicurl a try at Heritage Heights Park.

Yorkton Parks and Recreation installed crokicurl rings at two locations in the city in December, the other location being Silver Heights Park.

The rules of the game are pretty straight forward. The game uses what appear to be the rings of a curling sheet, with added ‘pegs’ that make it closer to the board game crokinole.

Players slide wooden ‘stones’ and try to get them into a small depression in the middle of the rings, or to knock an opponent’s jugs out of the rings.
