LANTZ: East Hants RCMP Community policing officer Const. Preston Burns paid a visit to the East Hants Sportsplex Feb. 8 to meet with members of the East Hants Curling.

EHCA President Harold MacNeil said the mission of the curling association is to provide the community of East Hants with an opportunity to participate locally in the sport of curling.

“To this end, EHCA aims to provide equipment and facilities, either temporary or permanent, that would allow such activity to be enjoyed by all ages and abilities,” said MacNeil.

“It’s a great way to meet new people and to keep active,” he said.
