Shuffleboard Club

The final league season of the club’s regular calendar year started with a bang on March 17, with four teams filling every lane for competitive league games. People are welcome to stop by to watch competitions and enjoy a coffee or snack.

On April 4 at 5 p.m. in the Courts Building, the club will sponsor a fun-filled tournament called the Ham Shoot—a game of luck where each lane is assigned an obstacle and each player shoots the lane only once before moving to the next lane. For more information, call or text Kay Mount at 775-527-0426 The newcomer training sessions will continue Tuesday afternoon, March 28, from 2-3:30. Pick-up games continue Monday and Wednesdays from 9-11 a.m., free for any interested LW residents. For those wanting to practice in the evenings, the courts are open Tuesday evening from 6-8.
