Robert (Bob) Storey

---

Induction Award:

Robert (Bob) Storey has been so much more to the sport of curling than an athlete; he has been instrumental in helping others in his hometown of Elmvale to enjoy the sport as well. From skipping, to coaching, to maintaining the ice at the Elmvale Curling Club, Bob has demonstrated his true commitment to both curling, and his community. Bob may have been teased about not having all of his fingers on the rock due to missing two of them, but that never stopped him from devoting over 40 years to the sport that he is so passionate about.
