The piper and Johnnie walker look after the winners of the Gold Plate, Gerry edwardson's Canadian rink.

Over the decade more than one thousand individual curlers from fourteen nations have participated. It has been their contribution which has made "The Week" such a unique curling experience.
Perhaps that is why I am so proud to say "A hundred thousand welcomes - good curling and happy times together.
