JOIN THE FUN!
In 2005 two bocce ball courts were constructed at Lake Summerset for the use of all Lake Summerset residents and lot owners. It created another three-season outdoor activity facility for all ages. The courts are located at the south side of the lake between the swimming pool and the tennis courts. During the playing season a set of bocce balls furnished by the Bocce Club may be checked out at the front gate and used by any Lake Summerset resident or lot owner. The Bocce Club of Lake Summerset was formed with approximately 75 members and competition games began in 2005. Third and fourth courts (2006-2010) and four 10x 20 shade tents (2007-2008) were purchased and installed by volunteer club members as the club grew to 150 members by 2010. Additional shade tents are in the future plans for the comfort of our growing membership.
The Bocce Club of Lake Summerset is a combination games, social and monthly luncheon club. The Bocce Club is open to all Lake Summerset residents and lot owners. We have the courts reserved on Thursdays, May through September, and play regularly scheduled games starting at 1 P.M. each week. Once each month we start at 12 P.M. with a luncheon at the bocce courts or at the lodge if it rains. Season membership fee is $10.00 per person and $1.00 for each week of play. These dues are mainly used for monthly court-side luncheon entrees, season-end banquets and team prizes. We invite you to join us as a team player or as a substitute player. Watch for our column in the Lake Summerset News for the spring pre-season meeting date at the lodge, join us at the bocce court or contact Ray Piccioli or Betty Piccioli at 815-248-3303.
