Gander Curling Club

Signs & Ice Sheets

The Gander Curling Club has been a great customer. Every sign hung there from 2006 up to the 2024 NL Winter Games was designed by this hack. A clean sweep! The coolest part is sponsored by Kelly Ford. It's the sheet.

The club logo is not my design. It was made before I was born. I gave it a glow up for the sign though.

The Club turns 50 November 2024! You can thank the volunteers for that. They've carried the club through some lean financial times and even a fire. It's thriving now. With a bar, a dance floor, a little bit of stage and a full kitchen. It's one of the best places in town for a private party or wedding and they're booked flat out.

The Gushue Girls and their shirts which spell G.U.S.H.U.E.

'The Gushue Girls' call The Gander Curling Club home ice! They've been lighting up rinks in safety pink (and other colours) since 2016 in shirts I 'designed'. The default font in Illustrator is Myriad. I picked Arial Black with intention, ok?
