| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | NOVEMBER 2018 | 53
Do you enjoy playing the billiard game of 8 Ball? If you do,
come join us. All Sun Lakes residents are welcome to practice
with us Mondays through Saturdays, except for Thursday which
is league play. We normally draw for partners at noon, then play
until 2 pm or so. There is no cost to join our group. However, if
you elect to join a team, there is a $15 competition fee per three-
month season. Eight teams compete every Thursday; four
teams at 9 am and the other four at 1 pm in our Main Clubhouse
Billiards Room. For a fun afternoon of friendly one-on-one
competition, come watch us play. For further information,
please contact Steve Brown, 643-9880 (stvdeb@gmail.com).
The Fall Bocce Tournament is winding down to our holiday
break. Fall play-offs will be held Nov. 12 and 13. For those new
to Bocce, Nov. 12 will be any ties that have to be resolved; we call
them 'pre-play-offs'. Semi-finals and finals will follow on Nov. 13,
at 3, 4, 5, and 6 pm. Join us — it's a good time!
A heads up that will be repeated in the December article: after
the holiday break, it will be time, again, to pay your club dues —
$12 pp for the year. The Winter Tournament, which is always the
shortest of the year, will begin the week of January 14th and will
run just seven weeks. As always, entries/dues go to 1288 Pleasant
Valley. There is a box at the door. For any newbies to the club, we
play at 1, 2, and 3 in the afternoon, hoping to catch the warmest
time of the day! And, since we normally have fewer hardy souls
sign up, we only play Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. By the
way, team entries must be in by
Jan. 4 and a
new card must
be filled out
regardless if your
team remains
unchanged. Each
year we start all
over again!
