U.S. Marbles Championship

I had the privilege recently of watching adults and children play at Standing Stone State Park. I'd like to thank all the people that gave me stone marbles and i'll be showing them off on the marble chat boards and in the Texas Marble Collectors Newsletter soon. Special thanks to the Kimmell family for inviting me and for taking pics when my camera battery went dead.

I also attended the Sistersville Marble Festival where i found more glass marbles and many of my friends hanging out. Beri Fox of Marble King invited me to dinner and the National Marble Champions board members were in attendance. Great to meet them!

What a wonderful site you have done for us. I am looking forward to being at the tourney this year. Can't wait till I see everyone again. I am so sorry I couldn't get to Pittsburgh the last two years. I am hoping my back holds up for this year.

See you soon!

Your First Champion,

Paul McKeone

Jeff, Please tell the Thompsons that I am deeply saddened to hear that Nathan passed away.  My heart has broken and tears are falling while I think of his beautiful smile as he played marbles at Wildwood and always had something funny to say to everyone.  I, and all that knew him will miss him here but I knowh will always be in our hearts.

Love to all,  Debbie

Thank you Bill for sharing your story and beautiful marbles with us!  

McCaleb's marbles are amazing.  Thank you Bill and Jeff for sharing that.  Edna

Thanks to Jeff Kimmell for the first class website he has made for the Texas Marble Collector's Club.  You marble players should check it out.  http://www.texasmarblecollectors.com/Home_Page.php

I have been interested in getting together with some other players. I live in Kansas City, MO. Anybody know anyone around here who plays. I live in an apartment and my landlord wouldn't like it if I create a court in the yard.

Let me know when you get your Texas Marble Collectors Newsletter.

Alphy sure has some nice marbles. 

What a great job Jeff, I have been away from the sport for some time now, I do think its time for a return!! Can't wait to see everyone!!!

Hey, just checking in after a few years away from marbles. Good to see an update on the site. Already practicing for this years USMC. 

Site looks great!!!!

Thanks Jeff, for putting my marbles on your site.  It's a great idea to have a collector of the month.

Great site Jeff!!! Cannot wait to see everyone in Middletown again this year. If any help is needed, please let us know. Have a wonderful summer everyone.....God Bless

My motto for years has been, i would rather see children shooting marbles than

shoots guns or others.
