New players and guests are always wel-
come to come and play the great game
of bocce with us. Members play at 1
p.m. Monday through Saturday during
the winter months, and are happy to
teach the basics of the game to anyone
interested. Membership dues for 2015
are $12. Membership may be renewed
or purchased through the SCTX online
ticket system.
Five point frames are hard to come by, as
once again no one was able to get more
than four points in a frame. The first
bocce special event of the year finished
with these results: Esther Campos and
Jerry Cross were the only players to win
three games. A total of 24 players com-
peted in the one day event. Congratula-
tions to all.
Bocce Fact of the Month:
Our equip-
ment consists of nine balls. The small-
est of these is called the pallino. It is
rolled onto the court at the start of each
frame and acts as the target. A set of
four larger bocce balls, each weighing
about two pounds, is rolled by each team
in an effort to get as close to the pallino
as possible. The scoring rules are posted
on the bulletin board near the courts.

plates, bowls, vases, animals, Christmas
trees and Santa Clauses can be painted
and glazed to your own design.
Hand Building:
For those who like to
sculpt from scratch, red, white, low-fire
and high-fire clays are availa-ble. When
completed, objects are fired in one of five
resident kilns that are operated by expe-
rienced members. Beginners’ classes are
held frequently.
Wheel Throwing:
Wheel throwing is
a unique skill. Six potter’s wheels are
available, and classes are held for both be-
ginning and more experienced members.
