US NATIONAL MEETING REPORT CONTINUED!!
Wilbur Horn is undoubtedly one of the best shufflers in the West Coast District in which he has been a member since he started playing shuffleboard in the early 80’s.

Wilbur won Florida State Non Walking Singles; Florida State Mixed Doubles; Florida State Tournament of Champions, and numerous other State Tournaments.
Wilbur not only shuffles in Florida but is also heavily involved with summer shuffling in Hendersonville, North Carolina. He was Chairman of the committee responsible for having the Roof Over of the Hendersonville courts installed; he accomplished the installation of all the electrical wiring and light fixtures on the courts, and helped to paint and lines the courts. Additionally, he was responsible for the Hendersonville shuffleboard schedule for 5 years.
At 82 years of age, Wilbur is still an avid shuffler and has not lost his touch to kitchen from any spot on the court!!
Congratulations Wilbur!! The West Coast District is proud of your accomplishments and induction into the US National Hall of Fame.
Congratulations from all Shufflers on this recognition of your significant contribution to the sport!!
