The Coronado/Mainland Shuffler

The Executive Board met at 10:00 am, Jan 5, 2019 with 8 members attending.   The minutes will follow at a later date.

The General Board meeting began at 11:00 am with 29 members (including the Exec. Board) attending. There was much discussion about Saturday General Play time. A vote was taken and we have changed the Saturday Regular Play time to 10:00 am year round.  This will start next Saturday, Jan 12th  We will be changing Scoring Time.
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN SCORING PLEASE CONTACT BONNIE RADKE. WE WOULD LIKE TO PLAY ON MONDAYS AT 12:00 NOON. BUT ONLY IF WE HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE SIGN UP. I will place a sign up sheet in the cue house.

Scoring is 8 weeks of playing on courts 1 thru 4. Shooting 4 discs from the head and then four discs from the foot trying for the highest score at each end. You do that on each court throughout the 8 weeks. The club will donate prize money to the top four scorers for the eight weeks of scoring play. If you have questions, please contact Mary Harlow at 571-302-6463.  Please let us know if you will participate on or before next Friday, Jan 11th or scoring will be cancelled.

The meeting was adjourned at 12:15 and regular play was at 1:30 pm.

I have a new link at the top of our website entitled, 2018 Points. I received an update from Pat King. These are the current points as of Jan 1, 2019. Please follow this link for updates.

2018 Points

Please do not forget to attend the General Board meeting following the Executive Board meeting this Saturday, Jan 5th at 11:00 am. This meeting needs to have your input because we will be discussing,

1. President Carbonell brought up the matter of parking on Saturdays during our play time. Should we change the hours from 1:30 to 10:00 a.m. year round? Discussion to follow.
2 Arden McConnell made a motion seconded by Tom Grubb to change the weekday times during the summer from 10:00 am to 9:00 a.m. A discussion to follow.
3. Two new board members have to be selected in January. (replace John Fortini and Jerry Jabaut) We will need an election committee this month.
4. A discussion followed about using 16 frames or a straight 75 points for tournament format.

We have almost 200 members in our club and we need a larger percentage of members to be part of this discussion if we are to change the shuffleboard format of our club. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Northern District, Holiday RV Village held it’s annual District Amateur Tournament Dec. 27th & 28th. Rather low in numbers with 11 teams. But none the less the competition was still fearsome. The courts were in beautiful condition and the discs were running smoothly.

I have been provided 3 names of those that have raised the bar on themselves. Congratulations to Joe Inga, Jerry & Arlene Jabaut, who have made it to St. Am and will be awarded their pins at the Northern District Master’s banquet.
Donna King was the director.
Congratulations to the Arlene and Jerry Jabaut!

Despite the rain, we had Twenty-Four (24) shufflers and cribbage players come for our Christmas celebration. Tom Carbonell, Mary McConnell, John and Barb Fortini did a wonderful job setting up the kitchen (beverages), table/chairs with colorful festive decorations and  Christmas Tree (beautiful handmade angels by Mrs. Pomainville sometime ago).  The club supplied two hams prepared by Tom and Barb. There was a wonderful selection of food that goes well with ham plus a large variety of deserts. Pat Clark began our celebration with a prayer and Tom made some announcements. Tim Hickey won the 50/50 before we all lined up to indulge in the delicious food. We had an enjoyably social evening and then cleaned up the room and wished everyone Merry Christmas and a good night till next time. Ciao!
