SPNO Final Entry

SPNO Final Entry.

 

 

 

Thursday March 30, 2017

Good Morning Everyone.

Just a short house keeping note to start with.  If you want to return your medals there will be a box at the Cheers bar for the next couple of days. 

 

The 18th Sandpiper's Nude Olympics is done and the final chapter is in the history book.  

It was another great time for these last 2 weeks here at Sandpipers Resort.  The weather was wonderful with no rain to bother with and no worries about competing nude this year.  

There were 114 athletics from 3 countries that played in 38 different events.  The total of all the nude athletes playing in all the events came to 994.  Thanks to everyone who played naked in the sun. 

Carma and myself would like to thank everyone who helped and assisted in this wonderful endeavor.  When we were asked to host this event we had no problem saying yes as we knew we could count on all the great folks here at Sandpipers.  Everyone who stepped up and said "Sure, we can help" made this event so much easier to manage.  In the end we had over 60 folks that came to our aid and did a fantastic job of getting things done.  When someone would come to us and say what a good work we did, all we could say was, it was easy with all the good help we had.  So once again we want to thank everyone for the time and energy they put into this project to get things done.

When it came to getting the information out to everyone, Sue Z with her blog, Steve with K-Nude, Loretta putting notes on Facebook or Maria keep the Sandpipers Calendar updated, there was no finer team.  Thank you for doing that for the group. 

Charlie and Peggy kept the refreshments flowing at the Cheers bar and Jon and Roy helped with the sound system.  The set up and take down crew of Paul, Judy, Randy, Sue, Ken, Doc, Larry, Ken, Brian, Jim and I am sure I am missing a few more, but they made short work of getting the Pavilion ready and looking good.  Thank all of you for taking time out of your daily schedule for helping.  

Dick made ice cream, Wendy and Jim served Bloody Mary's and meatballs, and the folks that brought dishes to share for the Super Happy Hours and the Cupcake and Cookies bakers for creating their special treats, many thanks to all of you.  

The event hosts were just wonderful to work with and without their efforts and assistance the 18th SPNO would not have happened.  Paul and Judy, Bruce and Sue, Randy and Sue, Lou and Alma and Patty, Jon and Donna, Tom and Betty, Richie and Susie, Doc and J, Bill, Frankie, Elsie, Jerry and Marsha, Roy and Dee, Jim and Anna-Maya, Charlie and Peggy, Ed and Claudia, Dave, Irwin and Margaret, Ken and Loretta, Ken and Freida, Yvon and Lucie, Ian, Linda, Bob B.  Please know that we want to thank all of you and don't be surprised when you are asked to help next year on the 19th Sandpiper's Nude Olympics.

Also a big thank you to everyone on the 400 Row who helped with the 4 o'clock happy hour events.  You had to put up with the big crowd of folks almost every day for the last week and we never had a single complaint.  Thank you all.  

I can't say enough about how much help Jon and Donna were with this entire Olympics.  We had meetings and started planning the whole thing weeks in advance.  We went over schedules and times and tried to come up with a plan of what worked and what didn't.  We tried to make sure events didn't interfere with the other regular calendar events and that as many folks as possible could come and have fun.  Jon was always right there for every event and he is the best co-host ever.  Your energy and efforts to make sure all the fine details were taken care of was a huge load off myself and Carma.  I hope you know how much I appreciate your help, thank you.  

This whole thing could not have happened if it weren't for Karen and Jay letting us have the run of the place for these 2 weeks each March.  They are great to work with and were always ready and willing to take care of anything we needed.  Thanks for the supplies, the prizes, the food and the this wonderful resort to hold all the events.  Thank you, thank you.

And finally I want to make sure I give a very big special thank you to my lovely wife, Carma.  If it wasn't for her keeping track of me and Jon, everything would have become a real mess.  The saying goes that a happy life is a happy wife and Carma wasn't happy until all the details were taken care of.  She was a real trooper and I love her dearly.  Thank you Carma from me and I am sure everyone here at Sandpipers.

That's all for now folks, except to let you know the dates for next years 19th Sandpiper's Nude Olympics will be Wednesday, March 21 to Wednesday, March 28, 2018.

Everyone here at Sandpipers feels like family to us and we love you all.

See you next season and for those traveling back home or on vacation this summer, stay safe, enjoy life and play naked.

Sincerely, 

Bob and Carma

Daily SPNO Update -  March 18, 2017

Good Morning Everyone.

Shuffleboard today.  A lot of teams and the weather is nice so the start has been moved up to 9AM.  It will be fine if you don't show up until the posted time of 10AM as only 4 or 8 teams will have started playing.  It looks like there could be as many as 15 teams in this event.  Bruce and Sue are the hosts for this event and will keep things moving,  Sunscreen and buy repellent recommended.  

 

 

There are no event signup deadlines today.  Tomorrow, Sunday March 19th at 1PM in Jackz will be the Dart tournament.  Please try and be there a little early to  sign in and get the brackets built.  

Still time to sign up for Doubles Ping Pong on Monday.  

 

 

That's it for today.

 

Thought of the day:  No one is in charge of your happiness but you.

Have a great day.

Enjoy life and play naked

Daily SPNO update, Thursday, March 16, 2017

 

Hello everyone. 

 

Thanks to Lou and Alma for hosting the Pickle Ball Tournament.  It was a awesome event and a great way to start off this years games.  Thanks also to the women who played Water Volleyball.  All the ladies were medal winners.  

 Today is Men's Water Volleyball.  Meet at the pool at 11:45 AM to get your team assignments.  Please don't be late.  We have exactly 3 teams of 7 so don't let your team down by not showing up.  

Also, today is the last day to sign up for Shuffleboard on Saturday, March 18th.  You do not need to be a couple as we will pair singles together to make up teams.  Sign up at site by 4PM.  

The first Medals Presentations will be at the Opening of the Sandpipers Nude Olympics on Wednesday, March 22.  For the completed events before that date please be there to receive your medals.

Thought for the day:  Make peace with your past so it won't screw up the present.
