CRAZY SHUFFLEBOARD
A large crowd gathered at the Shuffleboard courts on Thursday morning, February 27 for “crazy shuffle”. Sixty-two Creekers shuffled their way under, around and through obstacles on the courts to score points and provide laughs for onlookers. Most contestants ran the gauntlet twice. Top point-getters were JILL COLONNA with 122; FRANK LOPEZ with 114; and IZZY COLONNA with 110 points. Thanks to all who pitched in to help the “shuffling” shuffle along smoothly. In addition to the top 3 winners, 11 other contestants received prizes.
