HIGHLAND WEEK OF

We have now celebrated our 50th successive year of "Highland Week" which originally started back in 1967 the year the "Aviemore Centre" opened following construction from a greenfield site... Those who attended "Highland Week" over the years (till 1999) or came to Aviemore to curl in other Bonspiel's will remember the curlers haunts:- "Das Stubel" "Deer Stalker" "Osprey Room" "The Badenoch" "The Strathspey" all built as a package that will bring back great memories of curling friends made and never forgotten, many friends have passed to the ice rink in the sky but my bet is they meet on the first week of March annually and take part in their own "Skyland Week"... The Bonspiel continued with 40 rinks at "The Aviemore Centre" with the last one being held there in 1999. The demise of the Aviemore Ice Rink came as a great blow to Highland Week as well as to the local curling fraternity.
