Gary Benson, Tournament Director and emcee, was welcomed by over 3,000 players attending this incredible show which opened with a colorful parade of flags from around the world, and the Singles Awards Presentation to honor the top players accomplishments. Once all of the states and countries were acknowledged and the Singles winners were presented with their coveted Charlie awards, the VNEA had a drawing for a Valley Home Pool Table. The lucky winner was James Esparza from Eagle Vending in Tucson, Arizona and was awarded the table by Valley’s Dave Courington. With 96 members already enshrined in the hall, it was time for the VNEA to add 5 more names to the prestigious “VNEA Hall of Fame”. Receiving this tremendous honor, along with a beautiful Hall of Fame jacket, certificate and limited edition VNEA Hall of Fame trading card set, were the following inductees: • • • • • Bob Basset - Aactive Coin (Manitoba) Charles Castonguay - Alliance (Quebec) Dawn Fital - Coin-Op Specialist (MI) Beth Fondell - D & R Star (MN) Kale Woodside - V.V.S. (NE) When the 2013 “Charlie’s” had all found a home, it was time to “kick it up a notch” with some serious partying and the rock & roll sounds of the band “The Strip”. This popular, high energy band rocked the lot well into the night entertaining the crowd with their flashy, Vegas style show. The Team competition kicked off Tuesday morning right on schedule. Nearly 600 teams participated in the Team events at this 33rd Annual Championships. Results of the Sports, Redemption, Regular, Intermediate and Masters Team events were as follows: FINISH 1 2 3 4 5-6 7-8 9-12 13-16 17-24 25-32 WOMEN’S REGULAR TEAM PLAYER KNUCKLE DIAMONDS GOT BALLS? 2ND AVE CORNER POCKET SAVED BY THE BALL CONTROL FREAKS THE GATOR GIRLS CHARTER HOLDER HILLS VENDING SML ENTERTAINMENT CAMDEN AMUSEMENT & VENDING C & N SALES G&G ENTERPRISES REGENT VENDING & AMUSEMENT COLORADO SPRINGS SHARPSHOOTERS ENTERTAINMENT EXPERTS GET THE STEW BULLSEYE AMUSEMENT INC.

For the second year in a row, the VNEA conducted the fun and exciting World Team Championships! Countries put together one, four-person team to represent their flag. Australia, USA, Spain, Portugal, Bermuda, Canada and Germany all formed teams for a chance to win the coveted “World Cup” Trophy. When the dust cleared, it came down to Australia and Germany in the finals with TEAM GERMANY capturing the “World Cup” title. Congratulations to all of the teams that participated in this fun-filled and exciting event. VNEA President’s Reception. Charter Holders and special dignitaries were invited to the annual President’s Reception earlier in the week in honor of VNEA President David Hawkins from Austin, Minnesota. An entertaining pianist from a nearby “Dualing Piano’s” Bar played in one of Bally’s scenic “Sky Rooms” during the events popular Cocktail Hour. His music served as a relaxing backdrop for the evening. The VNEA also made available four tables stocked full of VNEA “Silent Auction” items. The guests love purchasing these unique treasures and the VNEA Junior Program loves the generous donation. Thanks to everyone who participated. Lifetime Sanction Cards were presented to four VNEA long time contributors. The cards exemplify a lifetime of commitment to the VNEA and were issued to Dave Hawkins (D & R Star - MN), Dave Townsend (TX), John Fisher (SML - Alberta) and Bob Glen - Ontario. Congratulations to these deserving individuals. Also highlighted at the reception was the presentation of the 2013 Warren Kelley Meritorious Service Award. In memory of Warren Kelley, a great believer in the VNEA, this is the highest award given by the VNEA. Accepting the award at this years ceremony were long-time VNEA supporters Dick & Mona Inglis from Inglis Coin in Boise, Idaho. Congratulations, Dick and Mona. The President’s Choice Award, presented by current VNEA President David Hawkins, was awarded to longtime VNEA Charter Holder, Bob Thomas, from Minnesota Pastime in Virginia, Minnesota. Dave honored his old friend for his dedication to the VNEA. Congratulations Bob and thank you for your many contributions. Another unique feature of the VNEA Championships was the Team Uniform Award. This award was named the “Red Jones” Team Uniform Award in 1997 after Mr. Pool, Red Jones, passed away. Red was always known for his classy wardrobe around the tournament room and it was an honor to keep his name alive by permanently affixing it to this award.

Several interesting and one of a kind fashions were unveiled. The women’s competition was strong which made it very difficult to pick a winner. The women’s winner, and perennial favorite, was Alaska Girls Gone Wild from Tri Valley Vending in Wasilla, Alaska whose members included Veronica Hereimi, Yvonne Powell, Tammie Kerby, Debbie Criss and Barb Glick. On the men’s side, Color Of Money, also from Tri Valley Vending captured first prize. Team members included Mohammed Hereimi, Damien Turchetto, Billy Stephan, Milan Janulek, T.J. Frank and Richy Orem. Free “Team Photos” were e-mailed to every entry and the winners were given “Free Banquet Tickets”. Professional Pool Instructor Mr. Jerry Briesath was on hand throughout the week to give instruction and answer questions. Briesath, taking his Pool School on the road, is always a crowd favorite as he teaches his techniques in a very intimate setting which makes him very understandable and in tune with the players. Jerry’s room was a popular spot throughout the tournament week. Tom “Dr. Cue” Rossman brought his Artistic Pool show to the big VNEA show. The Doctors fast-paced, energy filled shows always draws a crowd as he grips you with his highly skilled pool artistry and witty lingo. The 19th Annual VNEA International Artistic Pool Championship created quite a stir as hundreds of entries from around the world embraced the idea of the Dr. Cue Classic Artistic Pool Tour with its low entry fees, guaranteed prize fund, and an opportunity to become part of a much bigger picture for this growing sport. Players have long expressed a desire to take their passion for “Artistic Pool” to the next level and beyond. In this regard, a new format was designed by the Doctor... a simple LAG CONTEST. By simplifying the contest, everyone in the tournament could take a shot at the title and have a great chance of winning. When the final playoffs were done, we had winners in Shootout #1 (during Singles) and Shootout #2 (during Teams). Congratulations are in order for all players that “took the Artistic Pool Challenge”. Those players capturing titles were as follows: Shootout #1: 1st - Juston Salcido (Bozeman, MT) - $160 2nd - Bill Watson (Morrill, NE) - $120 Shootout #2: 1st - Ed Wyse (West Unity, OH) - $160 2nd - Steve Portelance (Calgary, Alberta) - $120 Another very worthwhile event took place during the 33rd Annual event - The VNEA “Cues For Kids” Program. Many gracious companies donated cues, cases, clothing, etc. to be raffled off during the tournament with the proceeds going directly to the growing VNEA Junior Program. Thank you very much to the following companies that donated merchandise: VALLEY... Connoisseur Of Custom Cues, Discount Custom Leather, GW Cues, J & J America, Omega Billiards, On-Site Stress Relief, Palmer Cues, Speed Break Contest, The Custom Cue Connection The Team competition concluded in the early afternoon on June 1st. It was now time to start preparing for the highly anticipated 33rd Annual VNEA Awards Banquet and Entertainment Extravaganza. When the doors opened at 4:45p, the players walked into an awesome setting which included a sparkling and modern stage surrounded by old-school Las Vegas props which set the tone for the night! As always, the players were treated to their pick of over a dozen beverage stations, and the great sounds of the Blues Brothers. Also, an incredible buffet style dinner was served to the party-goers. The act entertained the crowd throughout the hour long cocktail party and then hung around to greet the players and have their pictures taken with them. Once again serving as the 33rd Annual emcee was VNEA’s Director of Marketing & Promotions Brian Elliott. Brian made sure that each and every award winner received their accolades and with the brilliantly lit set, everyone who stepped on the stage knew that they were part of something special. Brian also spontaneously showered the guests with hundreds of dollars of casino chips throughout the evening. An incredibly entertaining slide show of the weeks activities was compilated by Britt Pearson Photography of Las Vegas which documented a lot of the weeks tournament festivities and this was shown to the party goers to great crowd approval. Gregg Elliott, VNEA Executive Director, acknowledged the remarkable Manufacturer/Supplier members that help support the growth of the VNEA International Championships by displaying their products during the tournament. They included: Connoisseur of Custom Cues, Discount Custom Leather, GW Collection, J & J America, Omega Billiards, On-Site Stress Relief, Palmer Cues, Speed Break Contest and The Custom Cue Connection. Sponsoring this years championships was: VALLEY On top of everything that the sponsors do for the tournament, nothing is more rewarding for the players than the Daily Raffles that take place on 6 different occasions. Awesome Poolside Cabana’s, mouth-watering Buffet Dinners (for 2) and Free 2-Night Stays at Ballys/Paris were all raffled off to our tournament participants. Every year the VNEA acknowledges some special people behind the scenes who work incredibly hard throughout the tournament. The following people were awarded beautiful plaques for their hard work: • Statistician Of The Year - Naomi Thomsen • Set-Up Person Of The Year - Wally Howton • Referee Of The Year - Maureen Plaquet Valley continued their support of the Annual VNEA Championships by giving away a phenomenal Valley Home Pool Table at the banquet. Billy Stephan, from Tri Valley Vending in Wasilla, Alaska, was the lucky winner of the beautiful table. Also, throughout the evening, the crowd was treated to the music of Frank Sinatra, Roy Orbison, Dolly Parton and, of course, the KING... Elvis Presley! Hats off to our great impersonators who kept the show moving with their musical tributes. Another successful event was in the books and all of us at the VNEA would like to thank every one of our players for their continued support and we promise the future of your Association is going to be GREAT!
