62 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2019 Cues for Two is a billiards group for couples. We play on Thursday evenings from 5 to 8 pm. It is open play so come in or leave when you please. Some couples like to have dinner and come in around 6 pm, and others come at 5 pm and leave about 6:30 pm for cocktails (you know who you are) and dinner. Our group started last year, and we are still going strong with about 10 couples. We are always looking for new players that would like to join us. We have seen many husbands and wives in the Billiards Room practicing or just playing around. This is a great way to meet new couples and join the fun. On July 20 at 4 pm we have our annual summer party planned at The Summit where we will barbecue, play bocce ball, bag toss, and other fun games and activities we have planned. For all you sports fans, whether it be football, baseball, or basketball, we usually have the TV on so you don't miss those ever important games. Yes, we even watched Jeopardy to watch the winning streak of James Holzhauer. Above are a few fun pictures of us goofing around while our table was being repaired and we were short a table for about two weeks. ~ Leta and Pat, odramirez9@gmail.com Cues for two So now that we're all pretty much used to the ball speed on the newly-covered billiard tables, our skills have increased exponentially. We have such a great time challenging each other every week. At the beginning of each session we pull numbered "peas" to determine partnerships, and the partnerships rotate as they win each game. Tuesdays are our formal play times, from either 11 am to 1 pm or 1 pm to 3 pm. We have quarterly tournaments to test our growing skills, and the winners have the honor of their names being engraved on the new plaque in the Billiards Room. To play in the quarterly in-house tournaments, participants must have played on Tuesdays at least three times in the three months prior to the tournament. Also, we have a practice session on Saturdays in the same time slots open to the community. If you haven't checked us out, please come and join us! We have such a great time, and all the people are such good players, fun to be around, and really kind to each other. Yes, quite a few ladies play too. You want proof? Check out the above photos. Do you see anyone sulking or crying? Everyone has a great time! So, c'mon out and share the fun. We'd really encourage you to join us. ~ Eileen Gilbert-Antoine, egcellent@msn.com Billiards for Fun Man made pockets. Break it Jane Slamer we got it!
