2010 State Tournament

A perfect October day made for an exciting, fun, and memorable State Championship in 2010.

And the fun's not necessarily over! We're planning to play the next few mondays, weather permitting. (Post-tournament play is something we've never done before).

Here are some (mostly ceremonial) highlights of this year's big event.

LPSC History

This image was probably shot in 1939, when the Loring Park Shuffleboard Courts were a recently-completed WPA project.

As you can see, there was no fence at the time, so police officers were used for security. Which is good, because Lee Harvey Oswald is standing right there behind one of the players.

Theme Nights

What you missed—Fictional Character Night. That's the Big Bad Wolf, Little Red Riding Hood, Robin the Boy Wonder, and Charley Brown below.

What's coming up—Christmas in July (in August)! (Watch this space for further details).

Meanwhile, every Monday is fun-day (evening, actually—7 to 9 PM) at the Loring Park Shuffleboard courts. Hope to see you soon.
