The usual clean up crew arrived to set up the courts for the Thursday Morning Four Play Challenge. We ended up with Twelve (12) enthusiastic players. Shufflers each played four hard fought matches recording their wins at the end of each match. With nine Pro and three Amateur Shufflers, it was very competitive. When the dust had cleared, no one was able to win all four games. We had a great time and hope to see more of you back here again next week. Ciao!
I had an unexpected note from Felix’s daughter, Phyllis.
I am writing to you requesting that you post something in the Coronado Shuffle Board Club news letter, about his recent heart surgery and tremendous recovery at 88 years old.(89 this August).
I am sending a PDF of a letter he wrote about his event, that he would like to have posted. Thank you for your caring support, he truly appreciates all the well wishes he receives.
Best Regards,
Phyllis Piscitelli (here is his address!)

The usual clean up crew arrived early to clean the courts for the Thursday Morning Four Play Challenge. Twelve (12) shufflers showed up for the challenge. We played our usual four games recording the winners after each game and drawing a new partner/ court for the next game. After all four games, we congratulate Randy Radke and Zak Wonson for winning all four of their matches. Hope to see you all back here again next week. Ciao!

So we had a small “steaming” weather tested group show up to shuffle in the Thursday Morning Four Play Challenge. I was not able to attend so Dennis stepped-in and Tom Carbonell sent me the pictures with the results. They had Eight (8) shufflers come for the challenge. No one was able to win all four games but Zak and Jerry each found a way to win at least three (3) matches. Congratulations! Hope to see more of you shuffling at next week’s challenge. Ciao!
Today we had four courts full for our Saturday morning shuffleboard. We had a nice surprise when NSB Mayor, Russ Owen came by to shuffle with us. Pres.Tom Carbonell took him under his wing with some instructions that helped Russ with his game. Glad to have him come by and join us any time. Everyone is always welcome. Ciao!

Sorry to say we only had six people sign up for Pot Luck, so I guess we will have to wait till maybe next month. Have a great day!
The usual clean up crew arrived early to clean up the debris from last night’s storm. Twenty (20) shufflers showed up on this beautiful morning for the Thursday Morning Four Play Challenge. We played all four of our matches recording the winners, drawing new courts and partners after each matches. At the end of the day Seven (7) of us managed to win three matches but no one was able to get all four. Today was a really good challenge. Hope to see you back next week to see who can win all four of their matches. Ciao!
I put up a sign up sheet for a Pot Luck Dinner for this Friday, June 21 at 5:00 pm. As Allen always says, “We have to eat somewhere”. If we can get at least 12 people, it would be fun to get together for dinner. Please sign up in the cue house or let me know. Hope to see you there. Ciao!
