The Manitoba Open 2005 tournament will be held at the AN&AF Unit# 283, 2584 Portage Avenue on September 16-18, 2005.  The ANAVETS UNIT #283 association of the Army, Navy & Air Force Veterans in Canada is the largest unit (membership of about 1200), of the oldest Veterans Association in North America. The club room is very large and roomy (it used to be a Roller Skating Rink) and has lot of room for the various activities that take place.  The main lounge has a large dance floor and lots of seating to enjoy each others company. There is also the Provincial Lounge if you prefer a more quieter atmosphere. Then in the large Game Room there are 3 full size pool tables, 2 in-house shuffle board tables, and over a dozen dart boards, plus 3 TVs (including a big screen TV) to make sure you don't miss any of the televised sports action.  There's plenty of room to bring in more shuffleboards for larger tournament events.

Thank-you,
Darrin Bauming
President Manitoba Shuffleboard Association
