Sponsor Spotlight; Baltimore City Cues; Finksburg, Maryland

Posted on April 15, 2021April 16, 2021 by Wayne Everhart

Thank you to Baltimore City Cues, for sponsoring our upcoming TTMD Billiards Streaming 10 Ball Open Championship at On Cue Sports Bar and Grill, in Front Royal, VA.

Baltimore City Cues’ Story

Baltimore City Cues started as a WBE, a small business endeavor in 2007, in Baltimore Maryland, with support from Tim Scruggs and Mike Cochran.

After a few months, with the encouragement from Tim and Mike, they called Dan Janes owner of Joss Cues in Towson Maryland and asked if they could come to visit and discuss with him the manufacturing of a Baltimore City Cues Sneaky Pete line of cues. Dan graciously said they could talk, a meeting date was set, a design for the cues was formalized and ultimately manufactured.

The Janes family of Joss Cues has been an instrumental force in molding and making Baltimore City Cues what and where they are today. Their ability to produce the finest playing cues available and their industry knowledge enabled Baltimore City Cues to grow and thrive over the past 18 years. C Jay shares “The debt owed can never be paid other than thanking them for their support.”

So they purchased a van and went on the road selling pool cues, accessories, and cues repair. As the years went by they built their customer base to include Senior Living facilities in the DELMARVA geographical area, Military bases from VA to NJ, and tournament appearances, their favorite being the Turning Stone Classic with Mike Zuglan.

Eventually they opened their first cue repair shop at Champion Billiard Sports Bar in Frederick Maryland where they enjoyed supporting the players and customers until 2021. Due to the Covid-19 epidemic they unfortunately had to close, but there was a silver lining.

On October 1st 2021 they opened their new facility in Finksburg Maryland where they were able to expand the shop and now enjoy sales and service at the new location.

Baltimore City Cues is a full-service sales and cue repair shop. They carry pool cues and accessories, as well as on-site service for cue maintenance and repair.

Thank you from TTMD Billiards Streaming

We would like to thank C Jay and Peggy Wilkinson for all they do for cue sports. Often they are involved behind the scenes assisting players and helping juniors reach their goals.

C Jay is a tireless advocate for cue sports and we are thrilled to share our vision and passion with him.
