62 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | NOVEMBER 2019 Finally, all the members' vacations are completed, and they have come back to us! We have such a fun time, with such great people, who enthusiastically support us by attending and making the games so much fun. Thank you to all of our wonderful members! (Check out the photos above of some of our accomplished and fun players! On Nov. 12, we will hold our final in-house tournament of 2019. (Wow, has this year sped by!) Even in competition, we always have so much fun, amidst laughter and banter ~ up until the final game to determine the winners, of course. Then the room is so quiet you could hear a pin drop on the carpet. Concentration levels are high, intensity is palpable, and seriousness is the modus operandi. After the winners are declared, everyone congratulates them, and marvels at their developed expertise. Well, kinda. We do have some awfully accomplished players, and they get better and better week after week. They deserve the accolades, as well as their names engraved on the perpetual plaque in honor of their wins. If you are interested in learning the game of billiards, or you need to dust off your own cue stick to come play with us, formal play is every Tuesday at either 11 am or 1 pm in The Lodge Billiards Room. We have a lot of fun, and invite you to come see for yourself. We also have a Saturday practice time open to the community on Saturdays in the same time formats. C'mon, check us out; you know you want to! ~ Eileen Gilbert-Antoine, egcellent@msn.com Billiards for Fun Wild Bunch Billiards The Wild Bunch 8-Ball Billiards Group is geared for those individuals who want to play competitively with those of their skill level. We started the new year with inviting the "best of the best" from Sun Lakes and Solera to play competition on Fridays, from 12:30 to 3:30 pm in our Billiards Room. It has been a great success with the skill levels ranging from Level 4 to Level 7. If you want to play serious, competitive pool, we invite you to come by the Billiards Room and join in the stimulation of competitive play. We do not play with partners; we play one-on-one with an opponent of your skill level. We are always looking for those who want to play competitively and, who knows, you just may want to change up your game and play on the team! And, most importantly, we have a good time. ~ Gracy Luna, gracyluna@aol.com Michael Rothberg demonstrates ability Mike Fisher perfects his aim Paul Snyder prepares to sink the 8-ball
