1 FOUR DEAD Official Newsletter of the Idaho Horseshoe Pitcher s Association Volume XXVII, #3 Fall 2016 President s Message Well, another year has passed and many shoes were thrown, and we need to ask ourselves if we accomplished what we set out to do this season. I did not get my goal of pitching a 30% tournament, but I was close and feel confident in what I did this year in staying consistent and throwing the same shoe each time. But the best part of pitching horseshoes is the people I associate with and the friendships I make and keep. Thank you to all who are part of my horseshoe family and who make this sport a joy to participate in. Melanie and I had a great time in Montgomery, AL and pitching in 2016 World Tournament. Melanie took 5th and I took 6th in our classes. We had a great time seeing the historical sites and renewing and making new friendships. (see our WT photos) I hope all of our groups are working on their schedule for 2017 that will be published in the spring issue. You could help us out by giving Carol your address so that we can keep our printing and mailing costs to a minimum. That way we can use those funds to help promote our sport. Here are a few announcements for this coming year: If you need your 2017 card, send the Membership Form to Carol or contact her at idkegler@aol.com and she can get your info and payment and send a card to you. Idaho State Doubles will be in Pocatello, but I am still working on the date around a few conflicts that I have. Please let me know which date you would prefer for Doubles: July 1, July 29, or August 5? I am leaning toward July 29. NHPA World Tournament is in St. George, UT July 17-29, Entry deadline is May 15, Remember you need 4 tournaments to be eligible to pitch at the World Tournament. Make your plans now to attend. Here is the link to the World Tournament entry form: Idaho State Singles will be in beautiful Coeur d Alene (CDA), Idaho, August 26-27, 2017 at Winton Park. We are planning on the same format as in past years. Please register by 8 pm on August 24 so that we can get the classes set up. We will have a Friday night tournament for all who show up by 6 pm. We will make it 4 person mixed classes for a fast three-game tournament. If you have any questions for the CDA club, contact Glen or Darla. Just a reminder that we voted on not mailing out paper copies of the newsletter, so if you know someone who wants to read it, please help them by sharing to their or giving them a copy. In the spring a mailing that includes the ISHPA Tournament schedule will go to all members. Thanks again for all you do to help grow this sport in Idaho. Have a great holiday season, and I hope 2017 finds you healthy, happy, and pitching many ringers! Brian J Poole, ISHPA President bjpoole3564@gmail.com

3 Hall of Fame Report The 2016 state tournament that was held in Pocatello and hosted by the Pocatello club went well this year. There were three past ISHPA members inducted into our Hall of Fame. Three people made presentations for each of the individuals. David Spears did the first presentation for long time member Nick Piva who passed away last December. Nick loved the game of horseshoes, enjoyed sharing it with others, and promoted the game very much wherever he went, especially in his home town of Challis, Idaho. Nick also won 3 Elders State Championship titles. The award presented was for Nick's tireless promotion of the game and his pitching abilities. Janette Piva accepted the award on behalf of Nick. Nanette Spangler made the presentation for Bobby Faulkner who passed away a few years ago. Bobby had a passion for the game, not just for his pitching, but mainly for his tireless efforts in promoting the game. His efforts paid off by accomplishing one of his main goals of getting and hosting the 2004 World Tournament in Pocatello. Bobby was inducted for his leadership, promotional, and organizational efforts throughout many years. Angie Faulkner accepted the award on behalf of Bobby. Our third inductee was Bob Zausch of Pocatello whose presentation was given by his grandson Jeff Zausch, a former junior pitcher. Jeff's speech was presented well and exposed many shared memories. Bob was inducted for his promotional, organizational, and leadership abilities of the game throughout his years involved in the sport. The award was accepted by Bob himself. I would also like to thank Nanette Spangler and Jeff Zausch for their efforts in making the Hall of Fame presentations successful.

The tally was 20 votes no and 15 votes yes, so the motion failed. He also reminded people that four events are needed to participate in the World Tournament. Old Business: Website maintenance fees: Motion was made by Jerry Smith to pay the webmaster, Steve Summerlin, $50.00, Brent Wood seconded, motion carried. The Newsletter: The Four Dead newsletter was discussed, and it was suggested that we should stop snail mailing it out and only use .

Denise Freier seconded, motion carried. New Business: David Spears talked about a website called Meetup.com that is designed for people to put activities on for all to see.
