Jingle Balls: November 27th, 2018

Well gang, we did it again!  Another successful Jingle Balls Tournament.  Whew! 


My heartfelt thanks to all of you who played, contributed, solicited raffle prizes, helped on “work day”, and volunteered yesterday morning to keep things running

smoothly!  We have already received many compliments about a well-run event, including the staff at Bear’s Best.  They told me we are the easiest and most organized group to work with of all the tournaments they host.  This is a tribute to all of you.


Our raffle ticket sales were outstanding!    

Grand Prize Raffles                         $1,025.00

Regular Raffles                               $2,237.00

  Total                                              $3,262.00


Split the Pot sales for our charities were $783.00.   Half of this amount went to charities and the other half was split between three people drawn from the pot.  One of the winners donated her winnings back to the charities which was very generous.  This resulted in a total of $521 going to the charities, plus most of the raffle ticket sales.


After all expenses have been accounted for, I anticipate we will be able to send our two charities, Little Miss Hannah Foundation and Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation, approximately $1,800 each.  We will keep you posted on the final amount.

Again, thanks to you for our success!

Loss of our friend, Mary Tucker

It is with a heavy heart filled with sadness that I inform you all that Mary earned her wings to heaven on Wednesday, February 21st, 2018.  


As her daughters said, please find solace and peace knowing that she is no longer suffering and in pain.  She was a great friend and will be sorely missed.


Rest in peace Mary and remember to shine your light on us once in awhile.  We miss you!
