Rebecca heading to national curling tournament

Congratulations to Rebecca whose curling team won the Grand National Curling Club Women's Junior Championship in a bonspiel (curling tournament) held in Wayland, Mass., outside Boston, last weekend (Dec. 27-29).


Rebecca and her teammates are seen here in front of the scoreboard in the final game of the competition. Beebe is the last name of the team's skip, or captain. Team Beebe finished with a 5-1 record to take the championship.

The team will travel to Devil's Lake, North Dakota the second week in February to compete in a field of 10 teams from around the country in the U.S. Curling Association's Women's Junior National competition.

Rebecca, her sister Lizzie and parents Doug and Lisa joined the Potomac Curling Club in 2003. Rebecca was on the club's team that competed in the U.S. Curling Association Club National Championships in March 2007.
