I rise today to recognize and congratulate Leah Prosser
of Port aux Basques on being the first local junior
curler to win her way to the nationals.
Leah was a member of the Gateway Curling Club at Port
aux Basques for eight years, all through junior high and
high school. She is currently attending Memorial
University at St. John’s and a member of the Bally
Haly Club. Her team mates include Alysha Renouf, Kylie
Power and Erin Porter.
The ladies won the provincial Under 21 competition at
Stephenville in early January and went on to represent
the Province in the national Under 21 Women’s Curling
Championships in British Columbia in early February.
Although the team did not win, they did make an
admirable showing with each game coming down to the very
last shot.
Leah is the daughter of Richard and Gertie Prosser of
Port aux Basques.
Mr. Speaker, I ask all members of this House to join
with me in extending congratulations to Leah on being a
member of the winning team for the provincial Under 21
curling competition and a good showing at the Nationals.
All the best to Leah, her team mates and her family. Way
to go, ladies! |
