\u00a0The return of the Saturday Bocco Volo tournament finished July 5th. There were 8 team of 8 players and all the games were played on Saturdays. This tournament was first played in 2019 and after a covid interruption, it was time to start it up again. Being on Saturdays,\u00a0 it was hoped that it would give our bocce players who still were working a chance to play in a tournament the wasn’t just Monday thru Thursday. I guess 64 players proved that to be true.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0On the final day there were playoff games followed by an amazing potluck. The bocce social coordinator, Barb Orlando, assisted by the membership chair, \u00a0Jeanne-Anne Whitacre, coordinated the potluck to make sure it wasn’t just chips and salsa.<\/div>\n
