Back in May, 1969, for my birthday, before my junior year of college, (Belknap College ) my parents bought me a turquoise, Mercury Cougar convertible with a white top. What a beautiful car! When I showed up on campus, driving all around Center Harbor, everybody started calling me Susie Cougar.

(My first name is Susan)
My husband and I graduated from Belknap in 1966. I call myself Lakeflier because I fly a Lake Amphibian.

What gave you the urge to pick up curling?

I always found it interesting, and the opportunity presented itself when a handful of people organized a league in Wolfeboro not too long after we moved here. It was a great way to connect with people, being new to the area; I made some great friends, and it is a pretty addictive game when you get into it. Seven years later and still at it.
