Sudbury Curler Sara Guy’s Unique Journey Across Canada
Changes in import rules have reshaped Canadian competitive curling, making distances between teammates more common than a decade ago. Even so, 27-year-old Marymount Academy alumnus Sara Guy stands out with her remarkable travel routine.
Just two days after returning from Yellowknife, Sara was at the Northern Credit Union Community Centre, ready to catch up. Her work often takes her across the Far North, including remote places like Cambridge Bay, Nunavut.
Exploring Remote Northern Canada
Cambridge Bay, a hamlet with fewer than 2,000 residents, is one of only two settlements on Victoria Island. It hosts the Canadian High Arctic Research Station and serves as the largest stop for vessels navigating the Arctic Ocean’s Northwest Passage.
“Consider for a moment that her regular work-related jaunts in the Far North not only feature various outposts in the Northwest Territories, but also visits to Cambridge Bay, Nunavut.”
The distance between Cambridge Bay and Sudbury highlights the vast scale of her travels.
Local Curling Events
Locals are preparing for the Swiss Chalet Women’s Curling Stadium Spiel in North Bay this weekend, continuing the rich tradition of curling in the region.
