The Pavliscak Invitational Bocce Tournament Began in 1998 with the first tournament held casually in the Backyard of Barb and George Pavliscak's Home in Blue Mounds WI.
The Second tournament was a little more serious and was well attended.
The Third Tournament Held on June 23rd, 2001 Was Much more organized and somewhat larger, and George Pavliscak, the host of the tournament plans more of the same for the tournaments fourth.
The 4th Invitational June 22nd 2002, was Excellent, Great weather, Great turnout. And the most Bocce Played thus far in a tournament.
The 5th Invitational June 21st, 2003 - We were once again blessed with excellent weather, turnout was Huge, and we were caught short on Bocce Sets. Next year we will have 6 or more courts going at the same time instead of 4
The 6th Invitational June 19th, 2004 - We had excellent weather for the event, beer and food were plentiful. Turnout was slightly down from the previous year. Many thanks to Doug for bringing his excellent beer, and for Doug and Tracy taking over hosting duties for Barb and I after 11pm - we were worn out from preparation - once again short on Bocci sets but we did have 5 games going for a large portion of the day.
The 11th Invitational - June 20th, 2009 - Our First All terrain Bocci Tournament, with our roads all torn up and a portion of the courts missing or in heaps of dirt and turf, there was much excitement had by all. Smaller than usual turnout had the players playing more rounds than ever. Pat S. played 126 rounds wow!
Of course you may imply by the name the tournament is by invitation only. Missed your invite? Contact George.
