Shuffleboard Club to host clinic
On Saturday, Aug. 19, the LW Shuffleboard Club will host an open house and training clinic from 9-11 a.m. at the courts building for any resident who is curious about shuffleboard and might want to join a fun group who enjoy a challenging game. The courts building is located behind Clubhouse 1 on Burning Tree Lane. All equipment is provided. For safety purposes, closed-toe shoes are required.
Sign-up sheets for the fall league are available in the courts building. After Labor Day, the fall teams will be assigned. Anyone interested in committing to one session per week for 9-12 weeks is invited to join either or both leagues. The Tuesday evening league play will start on Sept. 19 and the Friday morning league play will begin Sept. 22.
The celebration of the club’s 60 year anniversary will culminate Wednesday, Aug. 23, at 5 p.m. with a cook-out on the Clubhouse 1 patio with burgers, hot dogs, potluck salads, and desserts. Entertainment will be provided by the Greenville Singers. Two veteran members of the club, Maureen Habel and Dave LaCascia, will present a history of the 60 year old club.
All are invited to attend. The ticket for attending is $5 plus a potluck contribution. RSVP to Sally Fowler at 562-493-5854.
