Canasta #1 Join us for an afternoon of friendship and fun while playing a game of Hand and Foot Canasta. We meet Thursdays in the Card Room from 12:45 to 4 pm. 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 visit with old 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. Come join us. ~ Melody Seewoster Bunco We will play bunco on Aug. 11 and 25. We always play on the second and fourth Fridays of the month. We have a lot of new homeowners and bunco is very easy to play and is a great way to meet some new friends. You really should come and give it a try. We meet in the card room at 1 pm, sharp. Don't forget to grab a drink at Smitty's, or even lunch beforehand. See you there. ~ Cheryl Burke Mah Jongg Everybody is welcome to join us for Mah Jongg at 12:30 pm on Mondays in the Rec Center North. We accept beginners and offer coaching for those who have not played in several years. A current Mah Jongg card is required but you can borrow or copy one until you get your own. You do not have to own a Mah Jongg set to join the fun, so come on out! ~ Barbara Goodreau Pinochle for Fun Come join us! Whether you are a seasoned player or new to the game, we welcome you. Pinochle is an exciting card game where you bid and bluff to name trump and take control of the game. This stimulating game is a time-honored favorite. Winning is not just the luck of the draw; it is a thinking game which teases the mind and keeps it sharp. We play with a Pinochle double deck of cards, Ace through 10s. We meet at the Summit Mondays and Wednesdays from 10 am to 12:30 pm. Our Chair is Karen Farmer. The contact is Johanna Ballard; ballardlands@gmail.com or cell, (626) 372-7049. ~ Johanna Ballard We are looking for players, substitute players, and people who are interested in learning the game. I am happy to teach anyone who wishes to learn the game, either individually or in a small group, your home or mine. Pan is a card game, much on the order of gin in some respects, and played with up to eight people at a table. It is played by both men and women, so men are very welcome as well as women. The game can be played in the day, evening, in a room in the Lodge or in private homes. If you are interested, please call Linda Mendelson, at (951) 941-9100 or email Goldtoy@earthlink.net and I will answer any questions you may have. As are all card games, it is played with both skill and luck. ~ Linda Mendelson Pan 40 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | AUGUST 2017 August has arrived once again, one of the warmest months of the year and if you are looking for a cool spot among cool people, playing bridge might be an appropriate choice.
