      <description><![CDATA[<p>For 168 years, Brunswick tables have been crafted from the world's finest hardwoods. Over 80% of our tables are made from woods harvested in American forests and all of the lumber we use is hand-selected at the saw mill so that we can make sure we utilize only the most premium grade materials for our products.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We recognize how important it is to maintain a balance between the increasing demands for forest products and the preservation of forest health and diversity. That&rsquo;s why we make it a policy to partner only with lumber companies that practice sustainable forest management. When you invest in a Brunswick table you are not only getting the best built, most beautiful table available today, you are making an environmentally responsible decision you can feel confident about.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Competition-Style Table Celebrated for Connecting Generations through Superior Quality and World-Class Design</p>
<p>BRISTOL, Wis. (April 19, 2011) &mdash; Craftsmanship. Innovation. Heritage. Three words that have helped Brunswick Billiards, the country&rsquo;s leading manufacturer of pool tables and game room furnishings, connect generations around the world for more than 165 years. This year, the company commemorates the 50th anniversary of its Gold Crown&reg; family of tables.</p>
<p>&ldquo;For more than sixteen decades, Brunswick Billiard tables have brought families and friends together,&rdquo; said Austin Rothbard, president, Brunswick Billiards. &ldquo;Today, we celebrate not only the anniversary of this award-winning table, but the role it has played in shaping the industry and the thousands of memories it has created for families around the world. The Gold Crown series&rsquo; excellent craftsmanship and sleek design has contributed to its overall reputation as one of the industry&rsquo;s &lsquo;best playing professional pool tables&rsquo;.&rdquo;</p>
<p>Since its debut in 1961, the Brunswick Billiards Gold Crown table has been updated with new features for optimized playability. The current Gold Crown V edition features nickel-corner castings, apron details and a redesigned ball storage area to give the table a stronger, bolder appearance. The large capacity drop pockets, flush rail castings and Quick Set Foot Plates&reg; help facilitate play.</p>
<p>In celebration of the Gold Crown table&rsquo;s 50th anniversary, Brunswick Billiards will release a limited-editi&ldquo;Conon Gold Crown pool cue. The cue will be available nationwide at select retail locations beginning in September.</p>
<p>POCKET FULL OF FUN<br />A billiard room is not just about the pool table. It&rsquo;s about spending time with family and friends and making memories that will last a lifetime. According to Rondi Hillstrom Davis, author of the award-winning book, Together: Creating Family Traditions, organizing a family game night with an activity such as pool gives families a chance to enjoy an evening of togetherness and fun.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Setting aside just a small period of time together will help build powerful family connections,&rdquo; said Davis.</p>
<p>sider the addition of a pool table to a family room as an investment that will pay dividends for years to come. The best times of our lives are the ones we share together.&rdquo;</p>]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[BRUNSWICK BILLIARDS INTRODUCES BRIXTON AND MERRIMACK TABLES]]></title>
      <link>https://www.brunswickbilliards.com/news/brunswick-billiards-introduces-brixton-and-merrimack-tables/</link>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>BRISTOL, Wis. (April 22, 2013) &mdash; Brunswick Billiards, a world leader in the design and craftsmanship of billiards tables, game room furnishings and billiards equipment, is introducing two new billiards tables for customers who love the look of one of 2013&rsquo;s leading home design trends &ndash; reclaimed and distressed wood. Brunswick&rsquo;s Brixton and Merrimack tables feature a style that will complement rustic room decor or add a vintage touch to a more modern setting.</p>
<p>&ldquo;Billiards tables are an important piece of furniture in the home and game room. With the Brixton and Merrimack designs, we have created tables that could be incorporated into any room in the home,&rdquo; said Brent Hutton, president of Brunswick Billiards. &ldquo;These newest products are just a preview of what&rsquo;s to come as Brunswick continues to work with the top furniture and billiards table designers.&rdquo;</p>
<p>The 2013 product introductions include: Brunswick Brixton&trade; &ndash; Contemporary and comfortable, the Brixton is made from North American and European white oak hardwoods, featuring clean lines with a distressed finish. The unique &ldquo;X&rdquo; shaped foundation balances a modern look with a sturdy table, a first for the industry. The warm, natural pattern of the table matches today&rsquo;s popular furniture styles seen in living rooms and game rooms.</p>
<p>Brunswick Merrimack&trade; &ndash; A modern twist on an old world style table brings velvet-smooth play in the new Merrimack. The classic design features hand-hammered metal hardware and distinctive artisan joinery - the ideal complement to a handsome, hand rubbed antique finish that showcases the natural knots, grain, and texture of the table's rough-hewn North American and European white oak hardwoods. These rugged and rustic qualities provide a perfect contrast to the precision, <br />stability and playability built into each table.</p>
<p>&ldquo;These tables bring an element of design to our showroom that hasn&rsquo;t been seen before from a billiards table,&rdquo; said Jennifer Evans of Sanders Pro, a Canadian retailer that&rsquo;s served the billiards industry for more than 50 years. &ldquo;There has already been a great deal of interest in both the Brixton and the Merrimack.&rdquo; Both tables are available in eight- and nine-foot varieties, and include matching cue racks. Please contact your local dealer for pricing and availability.</p>]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Bristol, Wis. (February 3, 2012) &ndash; It may be cold outside, but things heated up during the Woman&rsquo;s Professional Billiard Association (WPBA) Masters Tournament hosted at the Soaring Eagle Casino &amp; Resort in Mt. Pleasant, Mich. Using her new Brunswick Billiards&rsquo; Limited Edition Gold Crown Anniversary Pool Cue, Ewa Mataya Laurance, &ldquo;The Striking Viking,&rdquo; came out on top defeating No. 2-ranked Allison Fisher, a veteran champion and fellow Billiards Congress of America Hall of Famer.</p>

<p>&ldquo;Now that I have my game and confidence back, I feel great about the rest of the year on tour,&rdquo; said Ewa Laurance. &ldquo;I have at least five or six major events left to play this year, and I can&rsquo;t wait!&rdquo;</p>
<p>Brunswick Billiards&rsquo; Limited Edition Gold Crown Anniversary Pool Cue became available in stores nationwide in October of 2011.</p>
<p>This was Laurance&rsquo;s first WPBA Masters win in 14 years. Viewers can tune in to ESPN from 1:30 &ndash; 4:30 p.m. EST on Sunday, March 18 to catch the televised airing of the three final-round, one-hour matches.
