Group photograph of the Grande Prairie Ladies’ Curling Club posed with rocks and brooms on March 31, 1922. The caption on the back of the photograph states: “The one and only time I ever curled.

I think the woman in the white sweater in front is Mrs. Christie and I think Mrs. O’Brien is second from the right in front.” The writer of the caption is unidentified.
