Help solve the Mystery
The full history of shuffleboard is not known. Though there is some knowledge of its development, its actual origins, the place and date where it was first played, remain a mystery. Inevitably, this uncertainty gives rise to some debate, even disagreement, about which country can claim to have invented it. However there is no dispute concerning its age as a form of popular amusement. In Europe as it has a history that goes back over 500 years. The Whiteside County Senior Center will be starting a shuffleboard group, as requested from some of our members in January! We are very excited to see our old shuffleboard floors shined and ready for play. So dust off your skills and come enjoy a round or two on Thursday mornings at 9:30am starting, Thursday January 5th! Who knows maybe we can solve the mystery……
