KURT LYSEN and I had PERFECT ATTENDANCE during the 3rd Quarter, and Kurt was rewarded by the club paying his entry fee today. CONGRATULATIONS KURT! Today was the final "official" weekly tournament of the cribbage season. So next week we will be playing for money, fun and bragging rights, but not for Grass Roots points. Our next "official" tournament will be next September. Thanks for your participation this year! Our club continues to grow and we've all made many new friends as a result. But we always have room for more, so bring along a friend over the summer and introduce them to tournament cribbage! I haven't forgotten our old friend ARLYN TEED who faithfully attended cribbage until her health prevented her from coming. We miss her quick wit and warm smile indeed! And keep our cribbage pal JIM RANSTROM in your thoughts as he deals with his health issues. Get well soon Jim! And Jim...if you're up for a game, give us a call and we'll drop by for a brief visit. For the record: RAY MIELBRECHT scored the FIRST 24-HAND and was also holding THE CHICKEN at the end of the day. Nobody scored a 4-of-a-Kind (in the hand, not including the turnup card), so the DIRECTOR'S AWARD will be worth $10 next week. Nobody held a 6-7-8-A-A, so the Raggedy Julia rolls over to next week. For the record: AL DeCARO scored a CRIB FLUSH and emptied out the DIRECTOR'S AWARD AL DeCARO also scored the FIRST 24-HAND CINDY GRENVILLE ended the day holding THE CHICKEN KIM LAZARE emptied out the SKUNK POT and nobody held a 6-7-8-A-A, so the RAGGEDY JULIA rolls over to next week. Oh, and I should note that all three of the losses that I experienced today were all caused by the women, Cindy, Ruth, and Sandy. Three TOUGH cribbage competitors! THANKS for the whoopin'! For the record: STEVE WENNSTROM started the day out scoring the FIRST 24-HAND MIKE SUDDUTH emptied out the RAGGEDY JULIA (6-7-8-A-A) JULIA BICK ended the day holding THE CHICKEN SANDY EUSTICE emptied out the SKUNK POT Nobody got the DIRECTOR'S AWARD (crib flush), so that will be worth $25 next week. (Ruth, you can collect your winnings next week! For the record: RUTH ADAMS started and ended the day holding THE CHICKEN RAY MIELBRECHT emptied out the SKUNK POT Nobody got the DIRECTOR'S AWARD (Crib Flush) and nobody got the RAGGEDY JULIA (6-7-8-A-A), so those two pots will grow next week. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all of our moms tomorrow! |
