Central Park Horseshoe & Activity Club

It’s with great sadness that one of our long standing member has passed away yesterday. He was a 7 time BC men’s 40’ Champion. He was a good person & friend to all he came in contact with. Rest in Peace Jim Ball he was 99 years young and he will always be remembered he was also a member of the HOF

So Abbotsford held a tournament on July 6 & Bob Salisbury & Myself (Allan) attended it was another hot day. I was fortunate to make the podium in third place.
I want to thank Abbotsford horseshoe club for putting on another successful tournament.
And just a reminder Cloverdale horseshoe club next tournament will be held July 20th and that will be the last tournament until the BC Champs on Labour Day weekend and it will be held in Abbotsford looking forward to more good pitching by all who attend.

It’s been awhile since the club has last posted.
So the club has increased in membership as we are also offering the opportunity to play and learn the game of horseshoes everyday Monday- Saturday from 1-3pm
Also members can learn to play co****le and other games. We have held two free lunches for members. The last one was held on Canada Day where with our new electric BBQ we cooked up hotdogs & hamburgers. It was a fun time by all who attended and we look forward to doing it again in the near future.
Gaetan organized a small horseshoe tournament and even though it was hot out it was a success.

Just wanted to remind everyone about Cloverdale horseshoe club tournament this Sunday April 13th & Abbotsford on April 27th

We celebrated Harry’s 100th birthday at the club on Saturday April 05 2025
Harry is our oldest member of our club.
His sense of humour makes everyone enjoy his company when he is in the same room.
It was well attended with friends and family including his 3 children.

Members from Abbotsford, Cloverdale, Central Park attended the 2023 Lower Mainland Championship. It was a good day for Horseshoes.

Harry is our oldest member at 99 and still throwing shoes.
