September 13-14 Thunder Bay Recreation Center in Alpena, Michigan ( our district) hosted the 2008 Adult Mixed Doubles State Championships. There were representatives from Northern Michigan, Western Michigan, Southeastern Michigan and Northeastern Michigan competing at 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, and 9.0 levels.
Northern Michigan's 7.0 team involved Paul Wieland (captain), Mark Fischer, Kirsten Pappas, Katie Lowran, Sandra Johnson, Gay Soupiset, Eric Bergsma and Mike Rubino. Our 8.0 team consisted of Dree Lo, Tina Blackman, Pam Osterlund, Brian Phillips, Denny Green (captain) and Patrick O'Neill.
Western Michigan was the star of the show taking all 4 titles for the State and moving on to the Sectional tournament in Indianapolis this coming weekend.
The district thanks the Board of Directors, League Committee, District League Coordinator and the staff and Friends of Thunder Bay in Alpena for a job well done. You were gracious hosts in your National Award winning club . We wish Western Michigan well in their competition this weekend and eagerly look forward to Tri-Level in October - it is such great fun !!
