The Coronado/Mainland Shuffler

The CMS Club is hosting The Northern District Tournament on our courts this Thursday and Friday. This Tournament does not run itself. We need Volunteers to help with the courts and the discs throughout the tournament. We also would appreciate a good turn out of our members to cheer on the participants. So far I have one person signed up to help. Please help support your club and the other members. The morning volunteers on Thursday need to be at the courts by 8:00 am to help set up. We appreciate your participation in this event.

Sigrid Reichert put a comment on my note about Jeannette Gagnon.   No One let me know this.   Our prayers are with you Sigrid and we hope you are returning for the winter.

“My husband Jim Reichert also passed away in July. He was a member of the Edgewater Club, Mainland Club and for a short time Coronado before he became disabled.”

Joan Best sent a notice to me from Leo Gagnon’s niece that her aunt, Jeanette passed away in July and that Leo Gagnon has dementia and will not be back to the New Smyrna area. Joan sent a sympathy card from the club…I have an address for Leo: 7 Lilac Dr, Gorham, NH 03581… thanks a lot!

Leo was a member of Edgewater Shuffleboard and then joined Mainland when Edgewater closed.  He then joined CMS when the two clubs were combined.  He made the Northern District Hall of Fame in 2013 and enjoyed playing in our Intercity competition.  Jeanette was a social member of our club.  They will be missed.

PLEASE MARK YOUR CALENDARS: On  Oct 16th at 9:00 am we will need volunteers to wash, wax and clean the courts for the Northern District Tournament which will be held on the 18th and 19th. We need to wash out the erasers and wash the calk boards and make everything look ship shape.

During the Tournament on Oct 18th and 19th  which starts at 9:00 am, we will need volunteers to help out . We need people to sign up for the morning or afternoon on the first day to set up the courts and help with the waxing during the tournament.  Please come early to help set up the courts.  We also need people for the morning on the second day to wax discs and sweep the courts after the tournament.

The sign up sheet for both above events are in the Cue House. Please volunteer to help. Without our volunteers we would not be a club. Thanks for your attention to this request. See you there.

Time to Wash and Wax the courts

Despite the early morning rain, Tom Carbonell, Randy Radke, Rich Kordeleski and Charlie Jones showed up to dry and clean the courts for the NSB 26th Annual Senior Olympics Shuffleboard Game. The kitchen crew, Bonnie Radke, Mary McConnell, Candy Kordeleski and Connie Bousquet set the tables and made the coffee. The donuts were donated by the NSB Parks and Recreation department. Sixteen (16) enthusiastic players showed up for all the fun and games. We explained the shuffleboard rules of the game to the participants who each played three matches of sixteen frames. At the end of the three matches, we totaled all the scores.

Please CONGRATULATE the place holders: MEN: Gold – George Karras with 265 points. Silver – Allen Best with 239 points. Bronze – Rich Kordeleski with 201 points.
WOMEN: Gold – Candy Kordeleski with 253 points. Silver – Betty Buccini with 218 points. Bronze – Joan Best with 152 points.  We all had a great time despite the intermittent sprinkles. Thanks to everyone who participated in these fun and games.
