FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JUNE 2020 53 Just in case: Check with your club contact to confirm meeting place, date, and time. Pete and I are sure missing our BFFG members! When the two of us have a 10-game competition at home (we have an awesome pool table), we wonder if any of you are practicing? Have you found a pool table to practice on? The Internet? Virtual games? (Pete is so skilled, that I have asked for mercy, and he agreed to play "last pocket" so I have a tiny, slim chance to win! We have a really good time.) It's so hard not seeing all our BFFG friends, though. We hope you are doing well, staying safe, and taking a day at a time until we can polish off our dusty sticks and dormant skills, and once again compete against and with each other. It will happen. Someday. Please take time and reminisce at the adjacent photos. We will be together once again laughing, encouraging and honing our skills, just like these photos demonstrate. Please know we think about you often, your health and safety. Be patient, stay safe and we'll see you all soon. If you are wondering how the quarantine has thrown off our quarterly tournaments, we were supposed to schedule a tournament in May. However, it doesn't look like we will be having tournaments in the billiards room anytime soon. So, the tournament schedule is on hold and possibly we will have to condense the schedule when The Lodge reopens so there are three more tournaments in 2020. Or not. We'll see. All non-BFFG members who are reading this article, if you are interested in joining our amazing group of fun-loving, pool-playing people, please contact me for more info. When The Lodge reopens, we'll be happy to include you at either the 11 or 1 session each Tuesday or you can join an informal practice session every Saturday convening during the same time-slots. Hope to see you all soon! ~ Eileen Gilbert-Antoine, egcellent@msn.com Billiards for Fun Wild Bunch Billiards The "Wild Bunch" 8-Ball Billiards Group would like to wish everyone a safe and healthy journey as we continue to shelter in place and enjoy watching pool on YouTube. We are striving to become a billiards legend in our own mind. The "Wild Bunch" consists of some of the best players in the league: Joe Spinella, Lucas Don, Robert Howard, Bob Rector, Mike Corbett, Carlos Rivera, LeRoy Wright, Rocket Spinosa, and Gracy Luna. Once this beast has died and the crisis is over, 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 will keep you updated on when we can safely go into the Billiards Room, which we are hoping will be sooner than later! In conclusion, Practice does NOT make Perfect Practice makes Permanent Perfect Practice makes Perfection Permanent. ~ Gracy Luna, gracyluna@aol.com Basketball Everyone is welcome. We meet at the basketball court Fridays starting at 4 pm. Bring your energy and be prepared to have some fun. ~ Richard Hoffman Our group at play Leta Ramirez strategizes her play Paul Snyder prepares a perfect shot
