Kohlenberg “living the big dream” with Team Nunavut at the Tim Hortons Brier
KINGSTON, Ont. — New to the territory, longtime curler Dale Kohlenberg walked into the Iqaluit Curling Club last fall and said he’d like to join a league and play on a competitive curling team.
Four months later he’s representing Nunavut at the Tim Hortons Brier.
“Never give up on your dreams if you’re still pumping blood and breathing air,” said Kohlenberg, who turns 65 next month.
It’s also the Brier main draw debut for Nunavut skip Jake Higgs, lead Ed MacDonald and second Christian Smitheram. They were 0-4 after dropping 7-4 decisions Monday to Quebec’s Alek Bedard and Nova Scotia’s Jamie Murphy.
