Shuffleboard courts to undergo much needed repairs

All current and prospective Shuffleboard Club members are invited to attend an important general membership meeting today, June 8, at the courts building at 10 a.m. The agenda includes debriefing the recent memorial tournament, discussing the upcoming grand reopening of the courts, the club’s 60th anniversary celebration and the fall league play guidelines.

The club also thanks the LW Weekly staff for the coverage of GRF Board’s funding approval on the shuffleboard building courts’ repair. The use of the shuffleboard courts building has grown dramatically, as many people enjoy this amenity throughout the week.

Assistance with learning the basics of shuffleboard is available all month in June. The shuffleboard courts (behind Clubhouse 1 on Burning Tree Lane) and mentors are available for instruction, practice, and pick-up games Monday and Wednesday mornings from 9-11.

With enough interest in pick-up games on Wednesdays from 1:30-3:30 p.m., the mentors will be available through July 6. All needed equipment is available at the courts building. Closed toe shoes are required.

Organized leagues will resume plays mid-September. Everyone is invited to the summer practice times to learn the basics of shuffleboard to enjoy the league play.
