Shuffleboard Club will hold Halloween party today
Newcomers invited to training clinic on Saturday for individual coaching
The Shuffleboard Club invites LW residents interested in a spooky good time to drop by for an early Halloween party today, Oct. 27, at the Courts Building. Costumes are appreciated.
The party will begin at 5 p.m. with a BYOB plus “snacks to share” happy hour. Then, the club will play two games of “on the line” for a fee of $1 for each player and will return the money to the winning teams in the form of prize money.
On Saturday, Oct. 29, from 10 a.m.-noon, the Shuffleboard Club will host a training clinic to assist with basic shuffleboard instruction at the Shuffleboard Courts Building (behind Clubhouse 1 on Burning Tree Lane). The clinic will be a good time to have one-on-one coaching on shuffleboard skills and strategy.
