Sudbury Curler Sara Guy Travels Coast to Coast
In recent years, new import rules in curling have reshaped the Canadian competitive scene. Teams now commonly face challenging distances between players that were once deemed unmanageable.
Still, the journey of 27-year-old Marymount Academy alumna Sara Guy stands out. Just days after returning from Yellowknife, she spoke at the Northern Credit Union Community Centre on Wednesday evening. Her regular work travels take her to remote Northern communities, including Cambridge Bay, Nunavut.
Exploring Remote Northern Canada
Cambridge Bay is a small hamlet with fewer than 2,000 residents. It is one of only two settlements on Victoria Island and hosts the Canadian High Arctic Research Station. The village is a key stop for passenger and research vessels navigating the Northwest Passage of the Arctic Ocean.
“It’s a long, long way from there to Sudbury,” reflects Sara Guy on her extreme geographic moves.
Connecting Communities Through Curling
Sara’s story highlights the growing trend of curlers managing vast distances between home and work while maintaining competitive play. Her experience represents the adaptability and dedication required in today’s curling environment.
