70 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2025 In recognition of our HOA's upcoming 20th Anniversary celebration in July, our club has recognized two of our best players for 1st place and 2nd place trophies. Our selections included Frank Turner for 1st place and Bill Palmer for 2nd place. Frank and Bill remain the team to beat with five Boston wins in one night! Both gentlemen are quite talented card players and both are super nice guys. Whether you are new to the game or a veteran player, we invite you to come out and play Bid Whist. Bid Whist is a variation of 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. We typically have an enjoyable time socializing while applying our individual team 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 tunes in the background. Win or lose … you will have a lot of fun and meet some great folks while playing 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. The Co-Ed Bid Whist club meets on Tuesdays from 6 to 8:30 pm in the RCN Room #3. We look forward to seeing you at the tables!! For more information, contact Frank Turner at (562) 922-9737. ~ Frank Turner Co-ed Bid Whist 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 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 Canasta Hearts We play Hearts every Tuesday at 6 pm in The Lodge Game Room. We welcome new players. If you don't know how to play, we'll be happy to teach you. Seating is done by random card draw. Try your luck at getting all the hearts plus the queen of spades. That takes 26 points off of your score, or, if you choose, adds 26 points to all the other players at the table. The jack of diamonds takes 10 points off of your score. The lowest score wins. It is lots of fun and we look forward to seeing you on Tuesday evenings. Bill Palmer and Frank Turner
