Well, the "featuring CaptJR" might be a slight exaggeration.
This Friday and Saturday October 6th and 7th is the Billiards For Benefits 9 Ball tournament.
The Hotel Carlisle, 1700 Carlisle Pike, Carlisle, Pa. 17013
Friday night is the Corporate Team Challenge. Which is for larger corporate donators that enter a team in the Friday night tournament. For this event there is a Wine, Cheese and Desert reception from 5:00 to 6:00 pm. Then from 6:00 to 8:00 they have "Okinawa Slim" Professional Trick Shot Artist. President World Pool - Billiard Association - Artistic Pool Division. www.atlantatrickshots.com
About the "featuring CaptJR" remark in the title. Either just before or just after Okinawa Slim, preferable before, don't know that I want to try to follow him. I'll be doing a Card Magic show. For those of you who have been around here for a while, you may remember when I gave a card effect away as a Christmas gift to everyone. (anyone ever spend the time to practice it?) It was called "The Flying Aces". In the show you would be able to see me perform this live, and other card effects. I can assure you that these are not the card tricks that you see your buddy do on poker night and NO trick decks. I have a standard bet, (opps) I mean price for card tricks. That is, after the show you can give me $50.00 and I'll show you how the effect of your choise is done. If it is not done with normal bicycle playing cards that you can buy at the local drug store, you get your $50.00 back and $50.00 of mine.
On Friday night there is a small $10.00 admission price for non-corporate team players.
Saturday is the main tournament which is usually a race to at least 4. 9 ball on bar boxes. I don't have the flyer in front of me but it is usually about $35 (give or take $10) They will be giving most of the money to the charity which is "Safe Harbour Inc.", serving the homeless. There will be a cash prize usually for 1st, 2nd and 3rd and a couple nice trophies. I think it starts at 10:00 but I'm not sure. I'll find out this week and put a follow up posting in here.
