“Hi, I’m Julia Cooney and I’m a middle school student who lives in the United States. I am a member of a family of four and I curl along with my little brother at the Philadelphia Curling Club. I love cats and aside from curling, my passions are baking and reading, among other things. I created this website for a school project and I chose this particularly because I love curling!
I apologize for any mistakes that may be on this site. Despite the fact that I have a good knowledge of curling, I’m always learning! If you have any updates or suggestions, feel free to email me.
