Congratulations to Dave Tumminello of the Long Island Curling Club for submitting the winning design for our Arena National Championships pin design contest! Dave chose a generic arena for the basic shape of the pin to represent the Arena Curling Championships. The rings on the roof replicate a curling house, and the Fort Wayne skyline sits behind the arena in honor of the event’s first host. Many thanks to Dave and everyone else who participated by providing us with a great selection of designs to choose from!
