As the hangover from March Madness – the NCAA’s national college basketball championship – wears off, it’s hard for Canadian sports fans not to feel a little jealous.
The Rideau Curling Club continues to churn out some of the country’s top players, with the Centretown club’s senior women’s team recently finishing second in the national championships.

Competitors in this year’s Ottawa Race Weekend will run through Centretown in flatter, faster and more scenic routes than ever before.
