On January 18, 2008, Del Webb-Pulte held a town hall meeting to describe the new
amenities being planned to accommodate the additional 2500 homes which will be added to Sun
City. In brief, the Billiard Club will be moved from its current location in the Social
Center. We will be relocated to a free standing building to be built in the area behind the
Veterens Memorial. This building will be dedicated to billiards and is being designed to
have space for 8 tables, doubling the capacity which we currently have now. This is a really
exciting prospect and the officers of your club are currently working with the folks from Pulte,
providing input to the design.
While this is great news for us, the down side is that the new Billiards Center will
not be complete until the 1st quarter of 2009. It is estimated that we will lose our current
space in May or June, 2008. In the interim, we will have at least two tables relocated in the
Social Center lobby, near the fireplace, not far from where we are today.
This is obviously an inconvience, as most days, we have had all four tables in play
morning, noon and night. However if you take the long view, we will end up with a great place
to play pool, and it will be available 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. I hope you will bear
with us during this time and look to the bright side - a fine new facility with twice the capacity
that we currently have.
