Bill Lumsden Award
The W.E. (Bill) Lumsden Memorial Award is presented annually to a Manitoba curling volunteer whose contributions to the sport reflect both their club and community involvement. In general, the award is presented to the 'un-sung hero' type of volunteer who has contributed to the growth of their club but perhaps has not received recognition for their efforts.
Nominations close annually at the end of December and the award is presented at the annual Manitoba Curling Hall of Fame Awards Dinner. To obtain a nomination, please write to:
