Hi everyone! Here’s your weekly news:
1- CAREFUL – “phishing”/”spoofing” detected: It seems that the email addresses fnault@curling-quebec.qc.ca and france.nault@curling-quebec.qc.ca were victims of phishing/spoofing. If you received an email from one of those addresses, without official Curling Québec logos, about an unpaid invoice, please ignore and delete.
2- Thank you Cathy!: Curling Québec would like to thank Cathy Hughes who recently completed her mandate as a member of the board of Curling Canada. During the last three years, Cathy spearheaded multiple projects as a member of the board especially as a liaison with the province of Québec. She was always available, present and efficient and it was a real pleasure to stand with her through her mandate. Sincere thanks Cathy! (pictured, right)
