Summer Horseshoe League ends with Blind Draw Tourney

The annual Horseshoe League kicked off earlier this summer and finished up with a blind draw tournament Thursday, Aug. 29. 

The Wheel Inn and the Wilderness Bar each hosted two teams who pitched against one another for six weeks.

The Wilderness Bar teams were made up of players Bob Breden, Dawn & Jim Charron, Kevin Ertle, Erin Halter, Rich Paul, Marty Sackman, Jim Sauders, and substitute player Jimmy Craig.

The Wheel teams included Roger Brandenburger, Tammy Jordan, Don LaRoque, Pat Shanley, Travis Shelton, Doug Vulcan, Sam Welker, Tim Welker, and substitute players Nic Heil and Doug Richards.

The League ended with the blind draw tourney hosted and sponsored by the Wilderness Bar. Each year the two bars take turns hosting the annual league’s celebration dinner and tournament. Participants drew their partners and were treated to BBQ dinner, drinks, and cash prizes for the winners.

First place went to Jim Sauders & Dawn Charron, Second went to Marty Sackman & Roger Brandenburger, and third went to Bob Breden & Travis Shelton.

The league will pick up next July and the Wheel will be the end-of-season host. Those interested in participating next year should contact the bars directly.
