A peek from the Town Crier files – August 27, 1965 – Mr. C.A. Warren of Burlington, Ontario (left) came to Mildmay to regrind and rematch the local club’s curling stones. This is quite an art and there are few men left who regrind curling stones. Mr. Warren had nearly a hundred to do here in Mildmay. The time to do one rock varies as to its condition, but it can take from 15 minutes to 1½ hours to do one stone. Mr. Warren told the Crier that some of the rocks here were different by a pound. Pictured along with the Burlington man is Elmer Perschbacher who is chairman of the Property Committee of the local Club.
