HELENSBURGH Curling Club held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) and prize-giving dinner to conclude the season.

President Jonathan Clinch presided over the AGM before inducting Ronnie Morrison as the new club president.

Ronnie Dunachie, a great servant to, and ambassador for the club for some 30 years, was appointed honorary club president.

The club was honoured to have Bill Marshall, the president of the Royal Caledonian Curling Club, attend and present the prizes.

Pride of place went to Jonathan Clinch for winning the James Sharp trophy, the club championship, for the fourth time, assisted in his rink by Adam Clark, Ian McLeod, Ian McArthur and David Forrest. The runners-up in the James Sharp competition won the vice-president's trophy and they were Alastair Leckie, Donald McLaren, Angus Hamilton, Ronnie Aird and Rob Brunswick.

The Bob Ralph Quaich was won by John Laverty, Brian Calder, Henry Deane, Norman Wardil, and Rob Brunswick.

The McArthur Trophy winners were Stuart Smith, Ewen Baird, Angus Hamilton, Bryan Wight, and Rob Brunswick.

The President's Trophy was won by Crawford Howat, and the Ferniegair Salver was won by Ewen Baird.

The Stranraer Schenkel Quaich was won by Ewen Baird, Ron Thwaites, Bobby Vance and Peter Proctor.

The Brunton Miller Trophy winners were Alastair Woodburn, Crawford Howat, Henry Deane, and Norman Wardil.

The town's curlers have now put away their curling brushes for the summer to be replaced by golf clubs, spinnakers, and an assortment of other summer activities, but will eagerly resume for the new curling season in September.
