Should the CCC Meet on Thursdays?! -- The following is Message from Senior CCC member Debs Pedigo

Leland:
Would you consider testing a change of playing nights from Wednesday to Thursday? I think it might help draw more adult players who play on Tuesday night but can’t or don’t want to play two late night games in a row. There are at least 4 or 5 players who I know play on Tuesday night and have played on Wednesday but now rarely do. My comments are only intended to help the club.

Debs:
Thank you for your logical suggestion. Though the CCC has met on Wednesday evenings since it's inception 47 years ago, that doesn't mean that it must continue to do so. A sage once said, "the difference between an intelligent man and a wise man is, the wise man has the ability to change his mind!" I believe I am still capable of doing that. If a consensus of CCC members agree that we should play on Thursday evenings (and, of course, if McAlister's mgmt. agrees) I would strongly consider making the change. It would be nice to get some direct feedback from those members who play on Tuesday evenings. If you can create a list of members who don't play now but would definitely play on Thursdays, I'd like to see it. But, I must be convinced that it's the right thing to do before we make such a significant change.
Respectfully,
NMLF
