Today the Coronado/Mainland shuffleboard club had its final General Board meeting of this season. We were pleased to see that over 50 of our club members showed up for the election of Officers for the coming year. The names of the nominees has been posted since Feb 14th. Joan Sanford our Acting President led the meeting and when it came time for the election of officers, Pat Llodra took over. Pat, Judy and Scott Menard had been working hard to get our nominees signed up. Congratulations to all the candidates. Without our hard working Board of Directors and our volunteers we could not have a successful shuffleboard club. Thanks to all for your contribution.
President: Janet Shira Vice President: Stan Williamson Secretary: Eurima Roberts Directors: Dennis Buelk and Tony Angelo
The Coronado Mainland Shuffleboard Club hosted the ND23 Pro Only/Amateur Only Tournament on Feb 29/March 1, 2024. We had Volunteers to come on Tuesday to clean and wax the courts, and volunteers that came Thursday morning early to clean. Mike Beall our court manager lead the cleaning and set up for both days with the help of many, Zak and Cindy Wonson, Joan Sanford, our President was ever present, Jerry and Arlene Jabaut, Marilyn and Bill VanLare, Dennis, Leslie, Joyce, Phil and many more. Without our volunteers we could not function. Thanks to all and those I may have forgotten.
The Sponsors for our tournament were Complete Health, Davis Bros HVAC, G&W Roofing, Highpoint Capital, NBS Homes, NSB Physical Therapy, Springhill Suites, State Farm Ins., Stellar Foot & Ankle, Town&Country Cooling, Kevin Para, Arlene & Jerry Jabaut, Gail Kadar, The Tivy Family and Cindy & Zak Wonson. Our director was Bonnie Radke. The weather was nice until 3 pm on Thursday when we were forced to quit early. More rain all night so our many volunteers showed up early to dry everything up. We almost made it to the end when during the finals, we were forced to wait out the rain and dry off the courts again. Thank you to all our volunteers who worked so hard to make this one happen. Congratulations to all our shufflers. It has been a great season.
