June 13th - news during the week

It appears that the light that was taken off of court #1 has been lost. Bill volunteered to contact a few electrical companies in town to see if they can replace the light. It seems that this light may not be in circulation any more.

It has been recommended that a tarp be placed over the fence in front of the Burger King drive-thru. At times, the headlights on the cars can be almost blinding on court 9-12. I will visit with the Shell manager and find out if they would be opposed to this idea.

I’m not sure if you know what geocaching is , but I have two caches at the pits. If you see people wondering around the courts with a GPS, they are looking for the cache. For your info the 1st part of the cache is on the information board, the 2nd part of the cache is behind the board at the East end of the pit. - IF PEOPLE SHOW UP, JUST SAY HELLO AND HAPPY CACHING. (sounds like cashing) If you want to see the caches, let me know and I will show them to you !

World’s will be here before we know it.
1) I am going to contact the "Timmers" and "Alva" to sell their horseshoe craft wares during the walking doubles tournaments. Maybe they can make a little money. If you know of anyone else in Gillette that sells this type of craft, please have them get in touch with me.

2) Diana has permission to use the equipment to monogram "stuff". We are going to work on making a quilt to raffle during Worlds. There will be one square (embroidered with the state/providence name) for each state/providence represented in the tournament. Hopefully we can get permission to sell tickets at the registration book at Cam-plex, as well as at the walking doubles tournament. Great idea Diana

3) Please remember that our club is responsible to man the registration table. The table will probably be open 8:00-4:00ish from July 10 - 20th. A sign up sheet is in the shed.

4) T-shirt orders for Worlds continues. This sign up sheet is also in the shed.

5) Nene is running the walking doubles tournament every night of worlds. If you would like to help out, just visit with her some evening. Thanks again Nene.

That’s about it for the week.
