The winners were the Jared Wannamaker rink from Gibsons including Juanita Wannamaker, Ken Johnson and Elaine Tattrie. They defeated the Gerry Webb rink, also from Gibsons, 5-4 on a last rock draw. Webb's rink included Wilma Webb, Mark Hussey and Chris Younghusband.
Third in the A-event was the Ron Corman rink and fourth was the Kevin Krake rink. Both teams are from Gibsons.
The B-event winners were the Dwayne Clegg foursome from Gibsons, which included Nadine Lowden, Howie Larsen and Carol Skytte.
The Mike Fitzsimmons rink from Langley was second while Norm Cole's rink from Powell River was third.

On the Jan. 14 to 16 weekend, 13 juvenile teams competed in zones three and four.
In zone three, there were four boys' teams. The Bryan Kedziora team of Erik Knechtel, Craig Archibald and Tyler McKenzie defeated the Horita team 6-4 in the final game of the double knock-out event.
The zone three girls had two teams. The Jami McMartin team of Sarah Neal, Angela Miller and Jennifer Allen defeated the Field team in a best-of-three final.
