Local ice-maker Jamie Danbrook gets chance of a lifetime at the curling worlds in Halifax.

There's a real science to making world class curling ice, and Jamie Danbrook is getting an up-close look.

The ice-maker at CFB Halifax Curling Club and Mayflower Curling Club says it's the opportunity of a lifetime to work on the ice at the World Men's Curling Championships in Halifax, which begins Saturday.

A team of 15 ice makers are working around the clock to make sure it's done in time. They're being led by Jamie Bourassa, a Calgarian who is the top ice maker in Canada.
