The Sauerwines, Paul and Marion fully understand what it is like to fill the President’s shoes of an active Shuffleboard Facility in the heart of Florida.

Neither can be found doing anything except contributing to the comfort, safety and enjoyment of the many shufflers who frequent one of the world’s largest Shuffleboard facilities.  Paul and Marion are shown above on the occasion of the Polk County Senior Games hosted by Lakeland the last 3 days of February, 2012.  The Courts were full all 3 days.  We would be remiss if we did not point out that they have competent helpers for many tasks but I cannot help remembering walking in one day, and catching Paul scrubbing the water fountain!!   A Model Couple Serving the Shufflers of the Central District, serving those participating in the 2013 Polk Senior Games!!  They never sit down until the work is done!! 

The Sauerwines, Marion and Paul Have Served With Distinction!!

Paul Sauerwine has been President of the Lakeland Shuffleboard Club for 5 Years!!  During that period, his closest, most consistent supporter has been his wife Marion.   During the 5 year period, I have commented favourably on their performance as leaders of one of Florida’s largest and most used Shuffleboard facilities.   The Senior Games, The Central District Masters, The Roll of Champions are just some of the special events which come to Lakeland; that is over and above their share of State and District Tournaments and normal Club Activities.

** Never have I heard a word of complaint as the two of them seem to float from one task to another > always with a smile on their face!!  The Central District, the State of Florida and the Membership of the Lakeland Club extend to Paul and Marian a sincere vote of thanks for their dedication to shuffleboard!!  Paul and Marion leave office on 2014 03 26.
