Hollywood Tri-Color & Silver

These are the colors of the 2010 Hollywood Curling 1st Place Winter League Championship and 2nd place Winter Club Championship medals which starts Team Bond Girl's medal collection. Here are some highlights for this season:

- Marissa: Making it to the semi-finals in Vacaville and going champagne tasting with the team... And us all meeting Debbie McCormick and finding out she had heard all about the Bond Girls!

- Cindy: Had a blast at the Crush bonspiel, this having been the first bonspiel away with the girls. This season I vowed to be more involved at the HCC, becoming Vice president, and part of various committees. Found out I'm going to be an aunt.......and crossing my fingers to hopefully get another curler in the family!

- Jennifer Gamboa: Sometimes life gets in the way of curling, and a number of times this past league we found ourselves playing with only 2 players! It was a mental and physical workout, as we were thrust into new positions, we lost some and won some, including a big win against the boys in the finals!"

- Donna: I had my first beautifully executed "crotch and squirt." This is when the stone I throw hits "the crotch" right between two stones that are parallel to each other with a little bit of space between them. They get hit out of the house. My stone "squirts" out behind them.

Two major battles were waged between the "husband" team, Team Zissou. Even though Team Bond Girls gave them a good whooping in the league championships, they got their revenge to win the club championship title in the end. No matter...medals are medals, and we'll hopefully add more colors to the collection. We got our eyes set on GOLD.

Curling season is well underway, and Team Bond Girls are gearing up for the upcoming Curling Club Nationals Playdowns and Spring League. Wish us luck!
