Members must attend at least four activities throughout the year to remain active voting members.

Activities

The club hosts a formal Nine Ball round robin tournament each Thursday night at Kolby's Corner Pocket starting play at 6:00 PM.
Each player contributes $10 to pay for the green fees (table time) and an award. A winner is determined each evening by best score
plus handicap. The handicap for each player is determined to best allow a fair and equal chance of winning the award. The award
