	Sue Minnich – Player Award Sue and husband Dave started coming to Florida on a part-time basis in 1989. They still owned Hallmark Card gift shops in PA and didn’t retire until 1992. Sue played in a beginner’s league until 1995 when Nancy Emrick (a first-year pro) persuaded Sue to play no-2-pro tournaments with her. Sue found she really enjoyed the game and the comreadship with other players so she continued to play tournaments. She became a pro in 1997 and she and Dave travelled to most of the State tournaments. Along the way she made many new friends. The shuffleboard community became her family away from home, as it is for many shufflers. Sue placed in 98 State tournaments with 31 different partners and friends. There are other friends she never had the opportunity to play with. She earned 101 national points with 4 national championships, including 1 national singles, and 3 national doubles titles with 3 different partners. In 1998 Sue was selected to play for the USA team in Goderich, Ont. Sue and Dave have 4 children and 8 grandchildren, all in PA. Sue would like to thank the FSA for making this honor possible, and to thank all her partners – the 31 she placed with plus others she almost placed with. And a special thanks to husband Dave who introduced her to this game of shuffleboard, taught her, encouraged har, and supported her throughout her shuffleboard career.

In 1993 she joined Lee County Shuffle Club, played in amateur tournaments in 1994, made State Amateur in 1995 and Pro in 1996. Cecile and Joe traveled to every Pro tournament in their motor home. In the morning you would see Cecile coming from the motor home with cue in hand, ready to do battle. If you were her opponent, you knew you had a tiger by the tail and if you were her partner she would give it her all. Cecile never made excuses if she got beat, “oh I got a bad court or the discs were bad”; she would say, “It wasn’t meant to be. We will give it our best next time.” Cecile has played at USA National tournaments through out the USA, and has been a member of the Ladies USA team for 12 consecutive years competing in ISA tournaments. She has attended ISA tournaments and/or Inaugurals in Japan, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Ireland, Denmark and of course the USA. She played in the 1st USA East-West games held in Hemet, CA.

It is my honor and privilege to present to you, my good friend and partner, Cecile Messier, for induction into the FSA Hall of Fame. Congratulations Cecile!! Induction by Ann Wedel.
	Lorraine Pollock – Special Award Central District - Avon Park Lorraine Pollock and her husband Bill first came to Florida in 1989. She began playing in tournaments in 1993 and had become pro in 1996. By 1997 Lorraine had been certified as a tournament director and now is the head tournament director for Central District. Lorraine has been a Central District board member for 10 years, including eight years as treasurer, in addition to many years of service to her home club, Avon Park. In 2003 Lorraine audited the books for the Florida Shuffleboard Association and continued until March, 2009. In October, 2004 Lorraine became the secretary of the FSA and has maintained this post with quiet distinction to this day. While this list of contributions to shuffleboard and the FSA in particular is impressive and worthy of recognition, it does not fully describe her value to the organization. As I have observed Lorraine perform her many posts over the past several years, I have seen that she is not only knowledgeable, efficient and accurate, but she is unfailingly kind, cheerful and cooperative. While I am sure that we can all name individuals who possess the first three qualities, it is very rare indeed to find someone who exhibits all of the qualities. It is the demonstration of all of these traits that make Lorraine such a valuable member of the FSA. It is with great pleasure and honour that I present Lorraine Pollock for induction into the FSA Hall of Fame in the Special Awards category. Glenn Monroe
	Jim Bailey – President’s Award Southwest Coast District - Bradenton Tonight we are here to honor Jim Bailey who has served us well as the President of the Florida Shuffleboard Association. Jim is already in the FSA Hall of Fame, Players category. But tonight we are going to honor Jim for his off the courts deeds! Jim has given back to our game by serving in many capacities. I asked Jim if he would be interested in running for the FSA Board as 3rd VP. You should know that Jim was already on 3 Boards in the District!! After much soul searching, Jim agreed. It wasn’t long until Jim moved up to 1st VP where he served for 3 years. It was here that Jim really honed his skill. He was in charge of the Tournament Scheduling, the Rules Committee, and assisting then President Clarence Wright. During Jim’s Presidency, he and I became very good friends. I was honored that Jim chose me to be his sounding board during his tenure. One of the things I suggested to Jim was to not make all the decisions himself, the full Board should make as many decisions as possible, not him. In everything he did, the Board was apprised and was part of the decision process. This advice I would give to every President. Keep in mind that Jim not only served on the State Board, he was also serving on the BSC Board, the District Board, KOR for the District and the National Board when I think of it. This guy was a working machine. In all seriousness now, Jim could not possibly have done these deeds, or accomplished what he did without his wonderful wife Ninfa. It is now my honor and privilege to present to you for induction into the FSA HOF as Past President, my friend Jim Bailey. Dave Minnich
