The Coronado/Mainland Shuffler

Our Thanksgiving Pot Luck Dinner Celebration is scheduled for November 16th at 5:00 pm. The club is supplying the turkeys for the dinner, but we need to have an accurate count on the number of people attending. Please email me or sign up in the cue house if you plan to attend. We need a final count by Wednesday in order to know the number of tables and chairs to set up and plan the turkeys.  We had 55 people attend last year and currently only have 26 people signed up. Please mark your calendars and plan to attend. See you there.

Through the month of October, the breast cancer campaign has generated $295.00 towards the Florida Beast Cancer Foundation. All donations have been greatly appreciated.
All donations will now be sent to the Florida Breast Cancer Foundation.
The wonderful thing about this organization is all donations go towards Research, Education and Awareness, using donations wisely towards this horrible disease can only help make lives better.
I’ve had many others mention the crisis that we all face with other types of cancer’s, granted they all deserve to be made as important as breast cancer.
I have chosen to direct my effort towards this disease as it has affected many in my family.
I would encourage others to get involved with charitable campaign’s of your choice, together we can all make a difference.
Thank you all for your support in this campaign

The Florida Shuffleboard Association is seeking a new person to organize the Preview Publication. Please read the attached PDF to understand what has happened to Colleen Austin and why we are in need. We potentially could lose $3500 a year . Please Read!

A report from the Northern District side of the FSA State Tournament held at Tavares on Monday and Tuesday.  A turn out of 16 Ladies teams and 21 Men’s teams saw some pretty good battles as well as milestones reached.

For the Results from this Tournament Please Follow This Link.

As the Northern District Results is not yet functioning, Allen and I are trying to keep our Shufflers informed.  Congratulations to all who played this tournament.

Just a reminder that Singles Mingles is next Tuesday, Nov 13th. For those who want to participate, please be there prior to 8:45 AM to register and pay your $2.00 entry fee. Game starts at 9:00 sharp. We play five games with twelve frames each game. We will pair as many Amateurs with a Pro/State Am as we can, depending on who shows up. The top three Amateurs and top three Pros/State Ams take home the winnings. Remember, you do not have to be single to play. Hope to see you there. Ciao!

I guess I need to apologize for not putting a reminder on the website. The Executive Board Meeting and General Board Meeting did not have a quorum. But they had a nice informal gathering where they got to talk about issues that Tom Carbonell thought was productive. I must make sure that we have something on the web for the next meeting. These meetings are important for the proper functioning of our club. Please post your club schedule and help me remember when we have meetings and functions. Please plan to attend next month on December 1, 2018.

From the Northern District, Sue McLaughlin and Allen Dronsfield will both be inducted into the Florida Shuffleboard Association Hall of Fame in January, rather fitting seeing how Sue and Allen also went into the District Hall of Fame together a couple of years ago.

John sent us a note about Christine’s fall at our Tournament. “Just a word to let you know that Christine is doing fine. She has no broken bones but her right leg took a beating from the concrete.
Our thanks to everyone who rushed to her side and were so comforting and helpful. We love our shuffleboard friends.
