Summer
3-Wall Doubles League, Veterans Park - Play is wrapping up
in the summer league, heading into the play-off round. A proposal
was made by Mike Reilly to set up a second league, to start play in
July. Members of the Board supported this idea, and Jim Krailler posted
a sign-up form on the web. Jim Krailler proposed cancelling the second
round, due to limited interest (3 responses) from members, plus the
duties associated with the Caples 3-Wall tournament. The Board agreed
with the proposal, and information will be posted accordingly.
ShortLine,
Summer edition - Jim Krailler reports that the July issue
was mailed on Monday, July 7th and included entry forms for the Caples
Memorial 3-Wall Tournament and the Golf Outing.
