The Coronado/Mainland Shuffler

Thursday night saw seventeen (17) shufflers come out on a balmy evening to shuffle with our new discs under the lights. “…….and a good time was had by all”. Ciao!

Please note that I have posted the New End of Year 2017 Schedule and the New 2018 Schedule under the attached titles. They can be accessed above Under Schedule as well.

Ron Raymond was unable to set up the courts this morning due to an accidental broken wrist (get well soon Ron!). His crew showed up to set everything up to play. Today was the first time visitors from Deland and Orange City tried our new discs. Twenty-three (23) eager players showed up to shuffle. We had three four match winners. Congratulations go out to Darrel Harman, Tom Rimmer and Rex Galushia. Next week is the last and final week to play Thursday Morning Four-Play this season. We hope to see you there. Ciao!

Tonight we used the new discs and they were great and really fast.  Please note that the new discs had not been waxed. We set up a form for us to use so that we can use all the discs in rotation and get them broken-in and ready for competition.

As you use the discs please put a CHECK MARK AFTER THE NUMBERED DISC CARRIER YOU USE.  (See posted disc use list on wall) You do not need to use the discs that correspond to the court you are playing on. If the discs have not been previously used, PLEASE WAX THE DISCS BEFORE YOU PLAY. Please see the following form to understand what we are doing with the discs. If you play on court 13, you can use any discs you like, just put a check mark next to the disc carrier number you use.  If you have any questions, please ask a fellow shuffler to be sure.  Thanks for your help.

Today was “clean up day” and Nineteen (19) hardy shufflers showed up to leaf blow, wash and wax the courts. We also moved Wayne’s New DISCS into the Cue House, washed out the erasers, scoreboards, windows and floors while cleaning out the leaves and debris from around the courts. Allen Best set us up in the Club House to take a break for coffee, cold water and donuts before finishing up.

Most of us showed up by 9 o’clock and were done by 10:45 am. When you have a great group of eager volunteers getting busy, the tasks get done quickly and efficiently. A GREAT THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE SHUFFLERS ABLE TO COME OUT! Tonight for the first time, we get to play with Wayne’s New DISCS  . Hope to see you there. Ciao!

More Pictures from Clean Up Work Day

Dear club members,

As I’m sure many of you knew my father, Wayne Lockwood, had seven daughters of whom he loved dearly. We are beyond shocked and saddened by his untimely death.

As I look through the pictures of dad posted on your site I am able to see what joy he experienced shuffling with all of you. I am so thankful that he was able to enjoy his years in the New Smyrna Beach area and thankful to all of you for being a part of his life. He touched so many lives and will be greatly missed.

Here is one of my favorite pictures of dad.

Let us continue to rejuvenate and support our charming Coronado/Mainland Shuffleboard Courts along historic Flagler Avenue in New Smyrna Beach.  “We acknowledge all those who went before us since 1937 to help make the CMS Club what it is today.  All the officers, committee members, workers, supporters and players that kept alive the spirit of competition and dedication in order for us to continue to play this wonderful game that we all enjoy.”

Allen Best would like to remind everyone that our year begins on October 1st. Therefore the club would appreciate it if you could please pay your $20.00 Annual Dues by September 30th. We are required to pay the city at this time and use the rest of the money collected for functions “to provide a social atmosphere to promote fellowship, sportsmanship, companionship and recreation for our club members”. Thanks for your continued support and attention to this very important matter.

NOTE:  Dennis Buelk, Bonnie Radke or Allen Best can collect your Dues at the courts and give you a new Club Membership Card.  You are also welcome to mail in your Dues to: Betty Buccini, 2325 Date Palm Dr. Edgewater, FL 32119 and she will mail you a new CMS Club Membership Card. Pay to the order of:  Coronado/Mainland Shuffleboard Club

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19th at 9:00 am. Please mark your calendars and come volunteer to help with the CMS Club Court Clean Up. We need volunteers to help sweep, wash and wax the courts and in general get us ready to use our NEW DISCS ON TUESDAY NIGHT under the lights. Hope you can make it.  Thanks.

We had a small Pot Luck Dinner get-together on Friday evening. Sadly, Rich and Candy Kordeleski were unable to attend due to the death of Rich’s sister.  Our thoughts and prayers are with them.  Allen Best was home with a cold, so Joan came to help keep things in order. Eight (8) people showed up to socialize and enjoy each others company. We had good food and great company. We talked about where we went and what we did during and after hurricane Irma. Casey McCall brought some delicious home-baked carrot cake for the finale. We bid each other adieu and left for the evening with plans to return for more socializing at next month’s Pot Luck Dinner. Ciao!

Our Pot Luck Dinner is scheduled for tomorrow night, Friday, Sept. 15th at 5:00 pm for socializing and dinner at 5:30 pm. With so many out of town due to Irma, we will be meeting in the club house side of the building. Hope to see you there.
