Who Runs This Place?

There is a group of 10 people who keep our CampFire running smoothly.

They put in countless hours to give us a place to play fun, friendly,

and fair games in a family atmosphere.

Their decisions may not always be the popular ones,

but they are always made with the best interest of the ladder in mind.

Let's meet this group of dedicated people!

 

 

(OAT) OnlyAThang

FOUNDER OF CAMPFIRE 

   I was born on July 4, 1954 and have 4 children and 3 grandchildren.  I also have 3 dogs and an aquarium full of fish.

My favorite food is steak and lobster...yummmm. 

My favorite place to relax is a tiny stream covered in low hanging brush and lots of tiny waterfalls near Mt. Pisgah, NC

What could my hobbies be?? Hmmmm...could they include spades? LOL  I began playing the game 37 years ago in a tiny beer palace called the Red Mule Pub in Brooksville, FL and I've been hooked ever since.

Sweet lives in Jacksonville, FL.  I was born April 14 and have 3 children and 6 grandchildren.  I have a dog named Bella

and enjoy playing spades, bicycle riding and spending time with my grandkids.

I've been playing spades for 15 years.  I am the Captain of the ThangZ team and my goal for this league is to keep it a friendly

place for people to come and relax and not have to worry about the hassles of everyday life.

 

 

SwtyPi

SwtyPi has been married for over 26 years and has 2 boys and 2 girls.  I was born on March 10th in Little Rock, Arkansas and was raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I now live in Roanoke, Virginia.

On my next birthday, I will celebrate my 35th year of being 29.  I spend most of my time coaching Basketball or Softball or watching my kiddies play.

My favorite place to relax is under a shady tree on a warm, sunny day.  I love sports, dancing, jazz, old movies and mystery novels.

My favorite foods are shrimp, steak, and ice cream covered in strawberries and Cool Whip. 

I've been playing spades about 14 years and am the captain of Sweet and Easy team. I am determined to do whatever I can to keep the CampFire League a friendly, fun, and competitive place to play spades with as few hassles as possible.

I spend my free time working in my yard, listening to music, and playing with my 2 dogs, A German Shepard and a Chihuahua.
Am captain of Spade Blazers, which I started on August 13, 2001. My goal as captain is to run a stress free team, just play  honestly and have fun.


As admin, my hopes are to be a "voice of the people". To remain the person I am, with the ideals that I have, and to do my best to represent the good people of Campfire.


I have been playing Spades since I was about 12 yrs old, and was taught by my sis-in-law at our dining room table.
