Our AGM was held within Glencorse Golf Club on the 14th of May, 26. At the meeting President Margaret Carr presented Linda McKay with a certificate confirming her position as an Honorary member of Penicuik Curling Club. Dave Anderson had nominated Linda on behalf of the committee. He reminded those present that Linda who joined in 1988 and her late husband Ian have always been great supporters of the club. Linda sponsors our Kettle League competition.

After confirming her many years of enjoyable and friendly memories of club events, Linda thanked Margaret and the Club for the honour and looks forward to continuing her association with Penicuik.

Dave Anderson, Dave Carr and I attended a dinner the annual Oxenfoord Curling Club Dinner on Friday 8th May 2026. Members from Penicuik have attended the dinner as guests of Secretary Robert Stewart for many years. This occasion was very special as it was to celebrate 150 years of Curling at Oxenfoord. The dinner, held at The Stair Arms Hotel provided the assembled company with a very entertaining evening with excellent speakers. To mark the occasion, Dave Anderson presented an inscripted salver on behalf of Penicuik. We hope that the salver might be used as a trophy for an annual fixture between the two clubs.
