BR2006 Schedule
« on: June 05, 2006, 05:25:52 AM »
Thought I'd throw out our schedule so those of you who want to golf, shop, or sightsee could have an idea of the times available to do a little planning.



Friday:

9-1 Golf Outing for those interested.
9-6 Instruction from Ron
6-? Supper as a group
8/9-? More bowling - Poker tournament at Geoff's


Sat

9-11 Practice on the Bragging rights tournament shot
11-12 Sponsors time, drawing for some of the donated equipment.  This year we have Ritchie Sposata, owner of Lane 1, possibly Dave Graber from Storm.
12-1 Lunch while Ron has the lanes reoiled
1-? Bragging rights tournament
7-? More bowling - Poker at Geoff's

I think last years tournament was very fair, scores were pretty close to each other.  We will do the same thing this year.  Handicap will be 100% of 200, shoot 2 games on each lane condition.  Not sure what shots Ron will put out but we've always had one pair with the USBC shot on it.

Winner receives the coveted Bragging rights T-shirt plus the ball of his choice of what we have remaining, the remaining items will be given away by another drawing immediately following the tournament.
Sun

? 12 Free time (Another golf outing?
12-? Coaching from Ron for the people who don't have to leave early.

Ron will also be available for free lessons on Thursday for those of us arriving early.  Seems most of the [deleted] lefties need more coaching than normal bowlers so he is putting in that extra day.  Righties are welcome but are warned about the potential "whining" that is normally prevalent among that class of bowler.

Please message Strider or myself if you are interested in the poker tournament.  Nothing fancy, maybe $10 entry fee???  Geoff and I are welcome to suggestions.

If there is any activity you are interested in, let me know, I'll see what we can set up.

So far, the following companies have promised to donate equipment to the gathering.

LANE 1
DYNOTHANE
VISIONARY
STORM

As other companies sign up, I'll keep you posted.

Remember, the only cost for this event is $1 a game.

Looking forward to seeing everyone again this year.

This will be the 4th Annual and I can say I've come out from the left coast for each of them.  "Thong Prince"  will not soon be forgotten

Just checking Big Willy or "Thong Prince"  are we still on for Scotch Doubles?

The only complication would be is this:

I have a girl-friend (not girlfriend) that might be coming with me. I dunno if she plans on bowling or not (she isn't much of a bowler...about a 160ish ave.), so I dunno if I can convince her to bowl in the doubles tourney...and if I do, not sure if she'll bowl with someone else. But about 90% sure we'll be bowling together!

Hey Willy!!  I was thinking of bowling in the Scotch Doubles, but would need a partner -- I could steal yours if you wanna bowl with TP....

TP,
I'm desperate enough, if you find yourself without a partner.

TTT

Unfortunately I had to work nights the last time, so I missed BigWillyStyle's more colorful moments.  Maybe we can get him to come out of his shell this time.
