Sorry for not having any photos this month as many of our sessions were rained out. It's been a long wet winter and many of us are looking forward to spring. Did you know that April is recognized as National Stress Awareness Month? Well, what better way to manage stress than to be outside in the fresh air and getting some exercise. We are still on our winter schedule, which means that we begin playing shuffleboard at 9 am on Monday and Saturday mornings. We play at the new shuffleboard courts at The Lodge, where we enjoy our own quiet and somewhat private area. Shuffleboard is an easy game to learn and anyone can quickly become proficient at this game. Our games usually last about an hour and we choose up different teams each time that we play. This allows us to keep the competition challenging and the games more interesting. We play for fun, but of course everyone likes to win. We have no losers, only non-winners. We have a great group of residents who play regularly, but we are always looking for new players. So if anyone is interested in joining a fun activity with lots of friendly people, please just show up on a Monday and/or Saturday morning before 9 am. We will give you an introduction to shuffleboard if you have never played before, or a refresher, if needed. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me. Otherwise, I hope to see you at the shuffleboard courts. ~ Marty Rotman, (310) 948-1693, mrtmj@aol.com Shuffleboard FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | APRIL 2024 63 Our BFFG group continues to grow. It's enjoyable to see new billiards players joining our group and we welcome everyone. The jury is out among the players on the new nine foot tables that are coming to replace our eight foot tables. It will be a new challenge for all of us. Hopefully we will all surprise ourselves at the Four Seasons ability to adapt to change. Our BFFG group meets every Tuesday from 11 am to 1 pm and 1 to 3 pm. For more information, please contact Paul Snyder at (909) 214-9464 or Donna Hendzel at (909) 435-6589. ~ Donna Hendzel Billiards for Fun Group Wild Bunch Billiards Let's hope by the time you read this the rain is gone!
