The heart-pounding excitement of the Opening Ceremonies at the 31st Annual VNEA International

of the VNEA Hall of Fame.
With players gathered from all over the world and all of VNEA’s dignitaries in attendance, the stage
was set for the introduction of the 2011 VNEA Amateur Pool Player Hall of Fame inductees.
Receiving this prestigious honor, along with an exclusive Hall of Fame Jacket, Certificate and limited

admirers and signed autographs for those seeking keepsakes. The “2011 Class” brings the VNEA
Hall of Fame Membership to 90 players. Our congratulations to these very special players.
Lifetime Members
At the Annual President’s Reception, during the 31st Annual VNEA International Championships,
a very honorable presentation took place for 4 very special long time VNEA family members. These 4
people have performed their duties and carried themselves in such an honorable fashion throughout
the years that the title Lifetime Members seems to be a perfect match. For their remarkable efforts,
Bruce & John McCaskill (Bannock Music), Chris Warren (Century Gaming) and Mike Fowler (IL)
were awarded beautiful hardwood encased, etched brass Lifetime Sanction Cards.
Exemplifying ingenuity, longevity, adaptability, creativity and many other attributes, these remarkable
people have earned their standing as VNEA Lifetime Members. Congratulations!
