We nearly tied the current "five Bostons in one night" high score! Frank Turner and Bill Palmer are the team champs to beat. But, another team — Frank Turner and Ken Morris — nearly tied that score with "four Bostons in one night" this past July. And, what a fun night that was! We also want to give a shout-out to our other players who often come out to support the Co-Ed Bid Whist Club and play cards; they include Roxanne Williams, Jan White, Earl "Tony" Owens, Stan and Rethalma Freeman, Ralph Bonner, Robert Harrell, Phyllis Zakian, Bill Clarke, Yaya Comas, and Twanna "Lady T" Stinson. Our club invites more folks to come out and play Bid Whist. We have flyers available at The Lodge, and our electronic notice can be viewed on the E-Boards in all facilities and in the Activities Blast. We have an enjoyable time socializing while applying our individual team strategies to win the hand or stop the opposing team from winning. There is also soulful and joyful music playing in the background to add to the ambiance. Win or lose … you will have a lot of fun and meet some great folks while playing Bid Whist. Bid Whist is a variation to the original game of whist and it involves trick taking, strategy, card counting, and careful communication with a partner. It is similar in play to Bridge and Spades. Whether you are new to the game or a veteran player, we invite you to come out and play with us! We will teach you how to play. The Co-Ed Bid Whist Club meets on Tuesdays from 6 pm to 8:30 pm in the RCN, Activity Room #3. We look forward to seeing you at the tables.
