There are many of us over 50 that don't have their physical abilities but would still love to be a part of the games. Well there is a new sport this year called Billiards or Pocket Billiards and to some it is know simply as Pool. Along with the Gold, Silver and Bronze Medals from VSG there will be cash prizes for the top players presented by NEK Pool. So if want to compete and none of the other 21 sports are your desire then come shoot some pocket billiards. In this case 8-Ball. The Vermont Senior Games 8-Ball Championship will be held right here in your town at The St Johnsbury Moose Lodge on Sundat Oct. 9th Let's get out and support our Seniors in some great competitions.
