Dennis Buelk hosted the Thursday Morning Four Play Challenge this week and Arlene was kind enough to take the final picture of the results. Looks like no one was able to win all four of their games so the runners up who won three games got to have their pictures taken. Twenty (20) shufflers showed up to enjoy what looked like a beautiful morning of play. Good time for all, see you next week. Ciao!

The SPARC Group met for its final play and the award ceremony for the participants. Each of them was given a medal for their participation in this eight week challenge. They had a really good time and learned quite a bit about shuffleboard. As Bill Boyes (director) has returned to Canada, so Tom Carbonell over saw the finals of this event. Thanks to all our volunteers who helped to make this an enjoyable event. We hope to continue this community shuffle again next year.
Big thanks to Jerry. Arlene. Marguerite. Tom. Rex and Tom and JJ. the Sparks kids had a blast pizza party and a medals were awarded

Today was our first day of the Thursday Morning Four-Play Challenge for the Summer Season. The usual volunteers showed up to clean up the courts and prepare them for play. We had Twenty-Four (24) enthusiastic shufflers show up from CMS, Deland and Orange City to meet the challenge. We played four games of 16 frames or 75 points and recorded the wins at the end of each match. When the dust had cleared Dennis, Charlie and Randy had won all four of their games. Congratulations. Hope to see you all back here next week for the next challenge.
The Winners…Charlie, Randy and Dennis

Coronado Mainland has their Thursday Morning Four-Play starting on Thursday, April 4th. at 8:45 am. There is NO ENTRY FEE. But I thought I would post a notice about the Summer Rotational Series that will be held at Hawthorne, Leesburg and Tavares. If you are interested, here is their schedule. Their Series is open to all clubs as is our Thursday Morning Play. It is a shame that both schedules are for Thursdays.
