SPORTS & EXERCISE Friday Shuffleboard League y Jack Blevons B Well, this is going to be a different letter, being as I am writing this on March 27th which normally would be early but as we all know, everything in our community here is either shut down or locked up. Our last day of shuffleboard ended a few weeks early & we all know why so won’t go into a whole lot of detail there. We were fortunate to get our last regular season games in on March 13th. The following Friday was supposed to have been the 8-Team Tournament & today, the 27 was supposed to have been our 16th Annual Bust-Up Party but that as well as the Tournament had to be cancelled because of rules laid down by Home-Town management which we all abide by. What I can tell you in this letter are the winners of the trophies in our league. The A-Flight 1st place trophies were won by Glenn & Mary Kay Tointon with a 41/10 record. Marlene Eck & Dave Lessard were in 2nd place at 40/11 & 3rd place was won by Marcella Carothers & Curt King at 38/13. In the B-FLight the 1st place trophies were won by Mary Pimental & Kathy Boesel, for the 2nd year in a row with a 26/25 record. The 2nd place winners were Cam Smith & Ray David at 23/28 & they were followed by Ted & Barb Luke in 3rd place at 22/29. Again, I am sorry our season had to end so abruptly like it did but that was totally out of my control. So, saying that, I hope everyone is staying safe & staying well & look forward to starting another season come November.

Del Tura Shuffleboard Grows To Triple Digits By Glenn Tointon Let me first tell you about our physical improvements to our shuffleboard area. All our courts have been re-surfaced with embedded beads, so they are always fast. Some of the best in Lee county! The scoreboards have been replaced and, as you may know, the benches were replaced a couple of years ago. And now, for the biggest improvement, the numbers actively participating in shuffleboard: Thanks to Bob and Darlene Brinker we have a fun league on Monday nights that starts at 6:30pm. Usually we have 40-50 players, some with no experience to some with years of experience. It’s all for fun. On Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 (earlier in the summer) Fred and Carolyn Brueggerman organize a smaller group, usually 20-30 players, for fun play. On Tuesday evening another group gathers for fun play. This group is organized by Steve Pina.
For all three of these times all are welcome and no experience is necessary. On Wednesday is our traveling league made up of 12-15 of our better more competitive players. This team, captained by Glenn Tointon, plays other communities in our close area. Although it’s competitive and records are kept, it is still a fun league. We really enjoy seeing other parks and meeting new people. Anyone can join this league. We teach you strategy and defense. Glenn is also President of this Lee County League. On Fridays at 12:30 Jack Blevons has an in-house league of about 40 players who compete throughout the winter (Oct. to March). Three games each week are played with an eight-team tourney finishing the season. Lots of fun with some competitiveness. This too is open to all. Whatever your interest, give this wonderful game a try. Lessons are available for free if you want. More information is available by calling Glenn at 920-309-1294.
