The
Field Box (formerly Ulena’s Sports Bar) in St. Louis, Missouri,
was the setting for the Sixth Annual Columbus Day Tournament. Thanks
to all those who participated. Hopefully we’ll all be back
again next year! As of this writing the dates, times, and place
for the 7th Annual Columbus Day Tournament are not decided, but
the flier will be posted as soon as those arrangements have been
made.
Taking third place were the seasoned team of Pat Marshall and Frank
Evelend. This winning team took first place last year. They played
smart and tough throughout the tournament. Congratulations to them
both for their Third Place Honors. Also, thanks to Frank for donating
his winnings to our newly formed St.
Louis Shuffleboard Player’s Association (SLSPA).
Coming
in second place was the first time pairing of Doug Schmaltz and
Fred Love. They displayed some fine skills and patience in working
their way through the tournament Congratulations to them both for
their Second Place Honors.
Coming in first were the brother team of Jerry and Larry Romay.
They took second place the year before and played well throughout
this year’s tournament. Congratulations to Jerry and Larry
for their Championship Honors.
There was a lot of strong shooting. It was fun and exciting to watch
these competitors shooting so well and to see all the participants
enjoying the camaraderie and good sportsmanship. I’d like
to extend a special thanks to Jill Romay, Jerry Romay, Steve Sheridan,
Mike Polson, Ellie Coleman, and Norma Young for their valuable contributions
and assistance.
