Participants with at least 10 points over the course of the year were eligible to compete in the final tournament, held in January. Thirty-two couples were eligible, and 26 participated in the championship match, where the better score between the two partners was counted on every hole. The winners were Don and Mary Schoch of Rancho Peñasquitos, with a net score of 62. Sabre Springs residents John and Lori Anewalt accumulated the most points over the course of the monthly matches, with a total of 65 points.

St. Michael’s School Presents Footloose St. Michael’s School students in kindergarten through eighth grade will be performing Getting to Know Footloose the Musical. The production tells the story of a teenage boy, Ren, moving from Chicago to a small farming town, where he runs into oppressive local edicts – including a ban on dancing. These strict rules are thanks to the same local preacher whose daughter Ren falls for. Ren convinces his friends to participate in a school dance competition in order to win her over and revolutionize the town. Performances will be held May 7 through 10, and tickets will be available beginning April 1 for $10 each. Find tickets at www.showtix4u.com, and learn more by contacting theater@smspoway.org.
