Our Terry Plemons Memorial / Dia de Los Muertos Tournament was an event to remember all of those those pétanque players who have passed on.
Sadly, this year our friend Terry Plemons was added to that list.

We were blessed with wonderful weather and a field of 32 energetic players competing in a carousel tournament - where pointers were matched with shooters and partners changed each game.
This tournament is our yearly fundraiser for the French Légation and this year $600 was raised in Terry's honor.
We had a wonderful day of pétanque with thanks to the Nelson Ranch Club for letting us use their wonderful courts.
Terry was a focus all day, in our thoughts, on the plaque, the medals and even the cake.
Viva Terry!!!
A special thanks goes out to Kathy Ragan who designed the tournament poster and medal inserts.

I forgot to turn on the “Allow Comments” feature when I posted this. In the meantime, I got a message from Walt Elder in London who said, “Thanks for sending. What a good event. So sorry I’m not there for that.” I sure wish Walt and Stefie were here too!
Very thankful for the Terry Plemons Tournament! I know this means so much to Bird/Michael! Looks like a beautiful day of special fun!
