Second Week BOWLING + Softball

Every sport has their own bulletin board so we took a copy of Bowling. This was the first year for the new chair and they did a great job.



Bowling is the second week of the games along with softball so John is limited to how much he can do with me. We'll do Mixed Doubles and Team.
My partner is Karen Chute. We knew each other in Buena Park CA and it has been fun bowling with her this year.

These are the new shirts this year and we wore them as doubles partners. Qualifying for doubles. We qualified in the scratch division. That was a shock.

John and I wore our matching shirts that we use in league. His shirt has 'salty and mine has pep"
Salty Pep and Annette Chugg. Salty,Pep and daughter Annette. She surprised us and came to watch us before her meeting. That was very nice.

Our team :
Ted Kezos Karen Chute Pearl and John. We were the "Misfit" Team so we all wore different shirts. Ted was given permission to bowl as a team and no other sport. We were glad he was our partner.

I entered all bowling events.
I qualified for all events. I bowled 24 games in 5 days. I was pretty worn out.
We were very lucky. Karen and I took a BRONZE (3rd) in doubles and our team took BRONZE !!!! We were all very happy.

After the games were over John traveled with the Slammin' 70's
from Salt Lake. They have played for him in other tournaments. They took Silver. They were defeated 3 times by the same team. They had fun.

Volunteers

These volunteers are very important to all the games.
Annette had the day off so she came to help. Bill and Frank were happy for her help.

Huntsman Games Second Week

Southern Utah Senior Softball Association

SUSSA 74+ Team We love their uniforms.
This team played the second week of the Senior Games. We have one player that is 81 and everyone can't believe he is still playing. John is 75 and there may be one or two more that age. Their uniforms are great.
Two of the wives had a lady make them shirts for them to wear. We all think we'd like them if the team continues to play together. Check them out.

Salty Dog Mesquite Seniors

The first week of the games Salty Dogs were entered as a 70 year old team playing down with the 65's. They called it practicing together as a team from all over, Salt Lake, St. George, and Mesquite. They had a rough time, we did manage to get all of our games in before the rain came because they played at 8:30 a.m.

After the first week of the Huntsman Games we played as 70's in Mesquite. We were called, "The Mesquite Seniors".


We never won enough games to count but once again it was practice.
We were without the players from Salt Lake. They were playing with their home town teams. They didn't win any games to speak of either. They were looking forward to the next week. We just need some running legs and on! those "Senior Moments" can really hurt a team.

Mesquiqte Cementery

Down the hill from the ball diamonds in Mesquite we find this cemetery. It is well kept and has a lot of different headstones.
I found this one that really was interesting to me. These people were very well known for their musical talents. I've wanted to take a picture for a long time and finally got it done.
