Congratulations to all the FSHPA members who traveled to the
World Tournament to pitch. I’m looking forward to hearing the stories from
everyone who attended.
The job I started last summer has gotten busier and
busier. I’ve been buried with work but
every time I think about complaining I remember being unemployed May of 2015
and thank my lucky stars that there is enough work for me to do to keep a
paycheck coming in. I have too many
habits that need supporting….like entering horseshoe tournaments. I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at the
various tournaments as our season cranks up soon.
I’ve had some trouble with my cell phone this summer,
too. I had several calls where I
couldn’t hear the callers but they could hear me. I’m not sure what caused this
but it was a real inconvenience. If one
of your calls was affected this way, I hope that you called back and were able
to get through. My carrier investigated the calls and checked my phone but
didn’t have any real reason for the failures.
The only good that came out of that was a small credit to my account for
the inconvenience.
****Once again I ask everyone to PLEASE HOLD OFF SENDING IN
YOUR MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS UNTIL OCTOBER 1, 2016****** You can use your CURRENT 2016 card all the
way up through 12/31/2016. You will need
your 2017 card for the FIRST tournament in January 2017. I won’t even have new cards until sometime in
October so if you send in your renewals before then I will just have to hold
your checks and forms until I have the cards to process.
Looking forward to seeing everyone again soon!

The snowbirds
started flying away in March and their nests have been empty for a while—it
sure gets quiet when the summer comes and the clanging of shoes
diminishes. Dale and I watched and heard some of the pitching during the World
Tournament in
Some of you know
Steve Moses of the Orlando Horseshoe Club, he was in
This season of tournaments that we can attend have been penciled on the calendar with Dale’s work schedule dictating which clubs he will be able to visit. Now we just have to go out in the backyard and throw some shoes. So let’s get out there and make some ringers. And have some fun!!
