Indoor Shuffleboard 

Cost: $2/per person 
Location: Clifford Arena 

If you are looking to learn a new skill or enjoy a low stress social outing come out for shuffleboard!

Playing shuffleboard has proven to lower stress levels. Exercise in general is good for your mental health, but shuffleboard is especially good at lowering stress levels because you'll be so concentrated on playing it that you won't be thinking about any other stress factors in your life.

If you have a group of four that would like to setup a regular playing time or if you are an individual that would like to learn, please contact Grace Wilson 519-338-2511 ext 243 grace@town.minto.on.ca
