I am pleased to announce that Debbie Evans has accepted the
appointment to the Board of CMS as Vice President. Debbie
will fill out the term of Johnnie Conner. Johnnie has been
unable to serve due to covid related issues and remains in
Tennessee. We hope to see her here as soon as possible.
Debbie is an avid shuffleboarder and will provide needed
support to the host group. She is also working closely with me
on our plans for the Club Championship.

Happy New Year everyone. I want to bring you up to date
on the plans for our next month of Friday games
beginning this coming Friday. The next four Fridays will
be devoted to qualifying for the Club Championship in
February. We will be playing three regular games each
day with handicaps. No five off games, etc. $1 entry fee.
Over the four week period you will get one throw out
week. So, we will count your best three weeks scores
towards qualifying. The money payouts will also be
decided this way.
We have not set the start date for the Championship.
The top eight qualifiers in the tournament group will play
single elimination for the Club Championship without
handicaps. #1 will play #8, etc. Each group will have three
days to complete their match.
We will have two other qualifying groups. In the
tournament group numbers 9-16 will play a similar
format but with handicaps. Group name to be
determined.
The top eight recreational players will also play this
format with handicaps. Please urge all of our recreational
players to come and play on Fridays in order to qualify.
See you all on Friday!    Zak

My granddaughter, Bella, took a really nice picture of our shuffleboard courts that I wanted to share.

Mark Engel was the Northern District’s First VP and many of our club’s tournament players know him well.

Rod Lewis reports to us that Mark has tested positive for covid, and has been in the hospital for the past three weeks. He is in the ICU and needs our prayers.
Rod says he I will update us as he hears more.

Tom Carbonell, Tom Grubb and Janelle Roberts got together for a  Thursday Night Shuffleboard game, but as Tom C put it, ” It was too cool for school”. Maybe next time.

I was very sorry to hear from Edna, that Allen Bessette had passed away yesterday. He was a Life Member of the CMS Shuffleboard club and a Northern District Pro and ND Hall of Famer who had been with our club since approximately 2004. I only had the privilege of knowing Allen and Dorine for a short time, but he was always helpful and willing to give shuffleboard tips. He was active for a long time in our Intercity Tournaments and he will be sorely missed.
I do not know any more information at this time. Cards can be sent to Dorine Bessette at 1703 Magnolia Avenue, Lot A14, South Daytona, FL 32119. He is to be cremated and his ashes taken up North to his family.

Here are the Qualifications for a Life Member
