Current News and Updates


From the Desk of the President

Happy Holidays! To each and every one of you!

The VaHPA is closing out the past year and looking forward to the new one. 2010 was a good year for our Charter, despite the economic downturn that has affected all of us. In Virginia, our over-all tournament attendance was very good this year, and our membership didn’t suffer drastically. I think the VaHPA will fare even better next year as each of us move on in our own “recovery”.

2011 will start out with a big BANG! The Ruther Glen Club, Floyd Hix and family, are in the process of building 12 PORTABLE COURTS. They have scheduled 3 early events and several other events over the course of the year, right into fall. If you are interested in attending their Jan, Feb or March events please contact them and let them know you want to be there! Their contact information and new location is on the 2011 schedule.

In Chesapeake, the city is doing an entire revamp of City Park, closing the horseshoe courts after the end of May. The Chesapeake Horseshoe Club has only one early event scheduled, so I ask each of you to attend it as it will be their only event due to the construction. Scott Fencil is looking forward to a great 2012 season with some exciting new facilities surrounding them.

The Richmond Horseshoe Club is excited about hosting the State Doubles in June, and Stuarts Draft will be hosting the State Singles in September. By the way, SD is kicking off the new year with it’s annual SnowShoe Festival on January 15. Come on over! It’s just for fun, but a real tournament – nonsanctioned of course. Dress Code IS: Prepare for the weather – whatever it is, will be, and we’re all outdoors. See you there!

Happy New Year!! See you all on the courts this (next) year !! Kevin


    

 

.The 2010 State Singles are on the site. Pat is working on a story to go with the pages and I 'll load her story as soon as I get it. Our singles ran smoothly and I appreciate all the help from the Winchester Club members and the VaHPA council members for making it a successful event. Great job! Kevin

Cancellation and New Event

     The "End of Summer Lynchburg South Tournament" that was to be held at the Moose in Lynchburg on August 14th has been cancelled. please pass the word along to anyone you know who expressed an interest in attending.   However , the


"Mid Summer Fill In" is ON! for August 14th!


     As President of the VaHPA, to have a sanctioned event cancelled is always a concern, especially when it is the last event for folks to get in their qualifiers for the State Singles. I asked the President of the Stuarts Draft Club if they would be willing to hold an impromptu event filling in the slot for next weekend. Pat consulted with the other club officers and they agreed to host the “Mid Summer Fill In”.
     It will be a sanctioned event so that any one who needs this last qualifying event can attend and make their requirements for the 2010 State Singles. On behalf of all the members of the VaHPA my sincere thanks to the Stuarts Draft Horseshoe club for filling in this need.
     The entry fee will be $15.00, with a 75% payback per class. Six man classes 1st place will receive $45, 2nd Place $23. All classes will be 40 shoe games. Any junior that finishes will receive a trophy after the event recognizing their achievements. I will be the tournament director and the President of the Stuarts Draft club, Pat Snelgrove and Sue Guyer will be assistant directors.
     Please pass the word along The "End of Summer Lynchburg South Tournament" has moved and changed names. Come join us! Kevin Snelgrove, President VaHPA

More updates and results are on the way!

 

      NHPA President Stuart Sipma is pleased to announce the appointment Rob Hagman to the position of NHPA NatStats Director and World Tournament Stats Room Coordinator. To read more about Rob please visit the NHPA Web site. Rob expects to have the NaSTAT backlog caught up in a few weeks.

   Here in Virginia, it's business as usual. All TD's are required to send tournament results to our secretary/statistician Pat Snelgrove. She will make sure NaSTAT gets updated after verifying your information is correct. League Directors continue to send your reports to both our secretary/statistician and Lorrain Sternburg. Pat, our secretary/statistician will review your data and contact you and Lorraine about any misinformation you  may have.

    I know Rob Hagman is filling some big shoes, and will be a great asset going forward. He is young, computer smart and full of energy. Our organization looks forward to working with him. Kevin


 

The lost of a V.I.P in the NHPA
By Kevin Snelgrove

    The "NatStats Guy ", Glenn Jamieson, suffered a massive heart attack on May 30th . He passed away on the morning of June 7th. Most of you may not know Glenn, but he knew all of you! He was responsible for getting you your Natstat average, as well as planning, setting up and record keeping for the World Tournament. I have worked with Glenn for over 15 years myself. He was always a professional, soft spoken gentleman willing to go the extra miles to make things right.

    Our thought and prayers go out to his wife and family. Cards may be sent to their home address which is available in Newsline and on the NHPA website. Shirley, Glenn’s wife has requested that all donations be made to the NHPF PO Box 1628 Penn Valley CA 95946
 

    Glenn work very closely with Pat Snelgrove and our Virginia statistics. He often thanked Pat and admired the way Virginia stayed on top of things. Because our state statistician keeps ‘on top of things’, If you are a TD in Virginia and have an event coming up, our state database will be accurate for Virginia pitchers. Pat has asked that if you, a Virginia pitcher, cross state borders to pitch, let her know. Keeping our state Natstats averages correct, Pat will send current reports to the TD’s .

    Stu Sipma, President of the NHPA, assures us he is working diligently to find a replacement for Glenn and hopes to have someone willing to take the position in the next week or two.


2010 State Doubles
By Kevin Snelgrove

The excitement is building,  Scott Fencil, President of the Chesapeake horseshoe club is very tired. He reports that all 12 of the courts have been dug out, backboards repaired, reset all the pins and most importantly put in the finest Kentucky Blue Clay thanks to City of Chesapeake sponsorship. Pat and I have received several phone calls from other club members along with our 1st vice president Sherwood Brown, the conversations with them that these courts are sweet! A pleasure to pitch on. I can hardly wait to get there and inspect the courts and play on them. See you Saturday


HORSESHOE PITCHING IS FUN month , a success!
From the desk of the President and RD.
     Overall we did not gain as many new members as I hoped for, but the contact list and excitement is certainly growing including a new web site sponsor. I am pleased to announce that the Shenandoah Acres Campground, less than five minutes away from the Stuarts Draft Complex has signed up as a new VaHPA web sponsor. I encourage all of you to spend a night or two at their beautiful campground. As NHPA members you will receive a 15% discount on your stay.
       Our new sponsor came from Pat Snelgrove (Stuarts Draft club president). She responded to an ad in the local newspaper and thought it would be great if her club could help out a campground that is literally 2 miles away. She made contact and things developed to the point that as Regional Director she ask me to inspect the courts and make recommendations for Horseshoe Pitching month.  The courts are a bit rustic, but what would you expect from a campground that has had no knowledge of official court specifications. I suggested roping off the area with caution tape and adding foul lines. The campground complied. On Memorial Day weekend several Stuarts Draft club members assisted the Shenandoah Acres Campground with their horseshoe tournament, displayed literature and shoes, and talked to all that gathered. No new contacts/members for the local club, but there where several pitchers from the Tidewater area that were interested in the organizations in their area. The information was passed along.
       The Richmond Club held an open house and 84 people attended, some club members but mostly new comers. Their event was held in conjunction with “Picnic for Tree Stewards in Gilles Creek Park “. Carl Otto admits the record keeping could have been better and that the club will be better prepared next year.
       The Portsmouth and Suffolk Clubs jointly teamed up with a fitness event near the waterfront in Portsmouth. They signed up three new members!
       Our state organization got involved with the Old Dominion Summer Classic, offering a free entry if you brought a friend and signed them up. We signed up two Cadets and one adult!
       I look forward to discussing more ideas at our business meeting in October. Please start thinking now about next year so we can get these get-the-public-involved events on the schedule.
 

45th Apple Capital Open
 May 15th, 2010
By Bobbie Burke

Great day for a horseshoe tournament, sunshine, not to hot, not to cool and 53 adults and 5 Junior participants. As I have said before, and as I will say again, it gives me great pleasure to be a tournament director for such a fine group and to the Winchester Horseshoe Club, for all the fine members, who assist and support me in getting the job done. I appreciate each and everyone. (more on this story)

Looking for Sponsors

The Old Dominion Summer Classic is being held May 22 in Stuarts Draft. We are asking the members to start looking for class sponsors for this event. Amy Hall already covered A Class - Orvis Co is sponsoring it. THANK YOU AMY for thinking ahead !! 
Now the rest of us need to get on the ball and find 7 more. Remember, the $50 per class sponsorship helps keep our State Singles entry fees down. If you have questions about this, just give me a call.   Pat

Excerpt from a letter to the Regional Directors from NHPA, Dick Hanson, Sec/Treasurer

 

"The NHPA Hall of Fame and museum in Wentzville, MO is open. The new facility still needs the support of our members. The NHPA/NHPF Buy-A-Brick program is ongoing. If you have not already purchased one please consider it. We have ample bricks available for purchase. Let your name be part of the history of the NHPA Hall of Fame.

And WHAT a festival it was !!

We had about 6” of snow on the ground on the south side, and on the north side, was grass – wet, but grass none the less, and plenty of sun in sky. The day turned out so pleasant, that most of us played in our shirtsleeves!! Find out who won! (Continued on the next page!)


POWHATAN Court Project

Joe Presho is asking for member assistance in getting attention to proposed courts at Powhatan Fighting Creek Park (next to the new Powhatan library about 1/2 mile east from the corner of 522 and 60.)

The Parks & Rec dept has the proposed area all roped off, anticipating construction of 6 courts. Depending on usage and activity, they’ve indicated they’re willing to go for 12. HOWEVER, Joe feels they’re ‘on hold’ waiting for public demand

SO if you want to see these courts built in Powhatan, feel free to contact  Kevin Myers at  Phone#   804-598-7835, Fax#  804-598-1304

 

CHESTERFIELD Court Project

Gary Martin is working with Sports Quest, a private organization that has 250 acres they’re developing in Chesterfield County (near the intersection of Rte 288 & Rte 76).

Look up the project scope at Greater Richmond Partnership by clicking here.  Or just search “Sport Quest” on the internet.

It’s exciting stuff!! Unless things take a surprising turn, this WILL happen within the next couple of years.
Stay on top of this exciting development, the whole Sports Quest park will have Olympic training facilities and accommodate multiple sporting venues.
