Hey there everyone,
I hope everyone is doing well during these recent months. Enjoying the summer, the rain, the heat and the fact that liquor stores remained open! 🙂

Now to the meat of this communication regarding the 2020-21 Sherwood Park Pub Dart League.  Last week I met with the Executive (total 4 of 6 were able to attend) and we mulled over the Darts Alberta document: COVID-19 Safe Return to Darts Protocols for Stage 2 as of June 30, 2020

We then came to the disheartening conclusion that our dart league, as we know it, cannot operate under the protocols of Darts Alberta. We are not the only league to cancel their 2020-21 season along with the cancellation of the 2020 Klondike Open. In place of leagues, smaller “dart cohort” groups are appearing by following the Darts Alberta protocols. These cohort groups can be created and managed by anyone who chooses to do so. Personally, I have investigated this option myself but chose not to proceed based on my work environment and “return to school” season approaching.  I urge anyone to thoroughly read the resources from Darts Alberta if you are interested in creating your own safe dart cohort.

Lastly, my term as President for the Sherwood Park Pub Dart League has been fulfilled (2 years). Since we are unable to have a full league Annual General Meeting, I will remain in this position and as “key contact” until an AGM w/election can be held.

Cheers and stay safe!

Congratulations again to all the winners!

Next, the banquet or lack thereof.  Since a large portion of our league fees go towards the banquet, the Executive have decided to “buy you a dinner” by refunding $40 to each fully paid/full time player.  Fees were collected by your team captain therefore the refunds will be given back to your team captain to disperse individually.  Please, only captains or one player in lieu of your captain to collect the team refund.  I plan to be at Oscars Pub on Monday June 1st from ~7:00pm to 8:00pm to distribute the refunds. Sorry for the short notice,

Lastly, I’d like to thank the rest of the Executive for their work:  Dwayne Wall (Vice President), Karen Lewicki (Treasurer), Jesse Teufeld (Draw Master), Stacy Nanninga (Bar Liaison) and Debbie Stirrat (Secretary).  Of course a HUGE thank you to all the SPPDL members for a “memorable” season.  

Cheers and take care everyone!
