Just like that winter ended and the snowtubing park closed for the season. Now, we want golf to begin and that is scheduled for the first week of April. Until then, there is still plenty of skiing in the Poconos at Shawnee and Camelback Mountain Resort. In fact, Camelback is hosting the carboard box derby and pond skimming competitions this weekend. Really fun and funny. It is not too late to enter. There are lots of spring golf specials in the Poconos. You can find Fernwood’s Spring Golf Discount Coupon here. Also, this weekend the World Tavern Poker Championships are hosted in Fernwood’s Astor Room. The event is open to all players if you want to try your hand at poker.

Excerpt from World Tavern Poker web site explaining the League:
“How It Works
World Tavern Poker is America’s #1 Bar Poker League with nearly 300 hosting taverns across the country and more than 90,000 registered players.
Similar to a dart or pool league, you will be playing in free Texas Hold ‘em poker tournaments each week at your local bar. The top players receive points and rankings for the chance to move on to Tavern, Regional and National Championships for the shot of winning up to 26 seats into World Series of Poker Events every year!
The year is broken down into (3) 15-week seasons (Spring, Fall and Winter) with Championship events for each.
As well, there is a bonus event called the Tournament of Champions. Each season, the winners from the Tavern Tournament of Champions move on to the National TOC (held once per year) for their shot at a $10,000 W.S.O.P. main event seat.
It’s Free, it’s Fun and best of all you have a shot of winning millions of dollars at the World Series of Poker!”
Looking forward to seeing you at the Final Table…
