FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MAY 2017 61 The first play day was March 5. Now it is spring. Beautiful flowers, trees and shrubs are the setting for shuffleboard play. All a few steps south of RCN Building at the Lodge. Everyone is welcome. Players use a cue (cue-stick), to push their colored disks, down the court. The scoring diagram is divided by lines, into six scoring zones, with the following values: 10, 8, 8, 7, 7, 10- off. You hope not to land on 10-off. Play times are 2 pm Fridays, 11 am Saturdays, 12 noon Sundays, 10 am Mondays. All are welcome. Come join in the fun and learn. Recently a 100-point game took just nine minutes. We needed to change partners on that court for a more "random mix." For more information call Mike Saperstein at (951) 769-7909 or Larry Anderson at (951) 846-3123. ~ Mike Saperstein Shuffleboard SPRINGTIME IN THE HILLS The day was perfect, sunny and cool. The scenery was magnificent-a panoramic view of the Yucaipa Valley. The hike was a challenging four-mile uphill and downhill, testing of aging legs for the Take-a- Hikers. Green grass, racing the end of winter rains, shouldered the well-defined dirt path from the Crafton Hills Reservoir to the crest of the cradling hills. Grasshoppers and lizards scattered in front as we wound our way back and forth through the switchbacks ascending and descending above the valley floor. The nine hikers huffed and puffed near the top but after a snack break of goodies and water were raring to head down the backside while viewing the headwaters of the Santa Ana River as it trickled into San Bernardino. And then it was on to lunch at Jose's in Yucaipa for Mexican cuisine. To find out where we are hiking in 2017 call or email Lynette Simonson at (951) 377-0392 or lynette.simonson@gmail.com. ~ Len Tavernetti TAKE A HIKE CLUB L-R: Walt Webster, Len Tavernetti, Yundell Montalbo, John McFarlane, Bruce Heimlich, Adona Lamar, Dianne and Larry Anderson at the reservoir Great fun on beautiful day with our newly painted courts Basketball Everyone is welcome.
