The Bluffton Shuffleboard Club meets in Buckeye Park, where the Village of Bluffton provides six courts and the club helps maintain the excellent conditions.
A Thursday afternoon visit found plenty of action on the shaded, well-appointed courts off Spring Street just across from the Bluffton Sportsmen's Club.
The club currently has 32 members but is always ready to welcome rookie and experienced players. Conversation revealed that kids and grandkids enjoy playing with their families. Club members come from as far away as Indiana.
Individuals are invited to play with the club on Mondays and Saturdays at
10:00 a.m. and on Thursdays at 4:00 p.m. Membership is just $5/year. All equipment is supplied. Tennis or other sturdy shoes are recommended.
The club became affiliated with the Ohio Shuffleboard Association in 1995 and hosts four Ohio State Shuffleboard tournaments, as well as three local tournaments. There will be a tournament on Thursday, July 28.
For more information, call Carlton at (419) 358-0270 or Dorothy at (419) 348-2190.
