The billiard room at the Senior Center is comprised of three
tables and accessories that make a fantastic place to enjoy playing pool with
others that share your interests.
The most popular game played is eight ball
but you will see some people shooting straight pool, and an occasional nine ball game.
Recently discovered is a game of golf played on the tables as well a version of
3 ball billiards. It matters not your skill level, only your passion for the
game. Most of the crowd haven't shot in years but find it is a great place to
share with others what was once a favorite pastime in a smoke free environment without the barroom atmosphere.
We are excited to offer beginning & intermediate pool
instruction by a very accomplished tutor that has years of professional training
absolutely free. You just have to stop by and schedule a time slot. The pool hall is not men only participation. Ladies are welcome and encouraged
to come and polish their skills. Come and enjoy shooting pool all day long for $1.00. That is not a
misprint!
The first few months the center was open there was little activity in the pool room. The staff concern was with as much space being used with so little participation consideration was made of using the room for other activities. I am pleased and relieved that we now have a busy billiard room most of the time and the threat of loosing the room to other interests at this time isn't a threat.
As we get more members involved shooting pool at the center there are plans of forming teams and competing with other pool teams in the area. If enough interest is generated the start of a pool league may be possible. We are now holding handicapped tournaments the last Friday of the month but are thinking twice a month if the interest of doing so is warranted.
