Curt Day Horseshoe Courts in Frankfort, Indiana
The Indiana Clinton County Horseshoe Pitching Club President Sam Payne is presently working with the city of Frankfort to give the Curt Day Horseshoe Courts a face lift.  The courts were ready for the Curt Day Memorial Tournament on July 16-17, 2011.  We had a good turnout of 26 pitchers and 4 classes.  Results can be viewed at http://www.horseshoepitching.com/tournaresults/tournaresults.html .   Sam is hoping to offer Frankfort's courts for a future bid for the state tournament to be decided at a future meeting of voting members.  Please click on link (or picture) below to go the the Curt Day Horseshoe Courts web site and view pictures of the courts at this early stage of repairs.
