Hey everyone, I am inviting more folks to come out and play Bid Whist. We have paper f lyers available at The Lodge, and our electronic f lyer can be viewed on the E-boards in all the facilities and online in the Activities Blast. We have an enjoyable time socializing while applying strategies to win the hand or stop the opposing team from winning. You can hear the excited voices of the victors around the tables, as well as a variety of mellow music from artists like the Temptations, Herbie Hancock, Aretha Franklin, Paul Simon, and Adele — to name a few — in the background. I strongly encourage new players to come out. We will teach you how to play the game. Bid Whist is a variation of the original game of Whist; 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, I invite you to come out and play with us! Win or lose … you will have a lot of fun and meet some great folks while playing bid whist. The Co-Ed Bid Whist Club meets on Tuesdays from 6 pm to 8:30 pm in the RCN Room #3. We look forward to seeing you at the tables! For more information, contact Frank Turner (562) 922-9737. ~ Frank Turner Co-ed Bid Whist 64 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | NOVEMBER 2024 Uptown Divas Bid Whist The Uptown Divas Bid Whist Group meets on the first and third Friday of every month from 2 to 4 pm in The Lodge Game Room. ~ Deborah Garner, kenyakiki@aol.com BY POPULAR DEMAND… We are adding a few more Wacky Buncos! We will now play regular Bunco on the first Friday of every month. (Of course, the Crazy Bunco Ladies may add a little twist to keep you on your toes and make the game a bit more exciting.) The rest of the month we will play Wacky Bunco. Our location hasn't changed. We play on the first and third Fridays in the RCN, and on the second, fourth, and fifth Fridays in the Game Room. Basically, if you don't see us in the Game Room, head on down to the RCN. Our game has become increasingly popular. Please arrive by 12:45 pm, so you can find a table and be ready to play at 1 pm. We don't want anyone to miss out on the fun and laughter. If you have any questions, contact one of the Crazy Bunco Ladies (Linda Supernaw at supernaw4@sbcglobal.net or Cheryl Diego at kinderbear@msn.com). ~ Cheryl Diego Join us for an afternoon of friendship and fun while playing a game of Hand and Foot Canasta. We meet on Thursdays from 12:45 to 4 pm in the RCN Main Room. Table assignments are distributed at 12:45 pm. Each week you may play with someone different, giving you an opportunity to meet new friends and/or to visit with existing friends. We supply the cards, so just bring yourself and a desire to have fun. If you don't know how to play, we are always happy to set up a teaching table — by the end of the afternoon you will have mastered the game. Join us. ~ Pam Morales, pamelamorales26@gmail.com Bunco Canasta
