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 play on the second and fourth Fridays of the month. Bunco is very easy to play and it's a great way to meet new friends. We meet in the Lodge Card Room at 1 pm sharp. Don't forget to grab a drink at Smitty's or even have lunch beforehand. Come and join us! ~ Ema Hajdukovic 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 Uptown Divas Bid Whist 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. 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 all are very welcome. 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 | JANUARY 2018 Once again we welcome the New Year with the beginning of good things to come to enhance our lives here at Four Seasons. The Original Bridge group is stronger than ever and we just celebrated eleven years of enjoyment playing this stimulating game. We invite you to join us each Monday at 12 noon in the RCN. The setting is lovely, the group congenial and it is a nice way to spend an afternoon each week. Please feel free to call Helen (951) 845-9312 or Gordon Sheppard at (714) 390-2610 for more information about the classes of instruction by a professional teacher.

The facility comfortably provides room for classes, twelve tables for bridge and a convenient snack room. The club is expanding under the direction of Barbara Revels who is a skilled instructor and director. Call her at (951) 530-1523 for further information and reservations.

A wonderful time was had by all who attended. Thank you FirstService staff. We appreciate your assistance throughout the year. We meet the 1st and 3rd Fridays in the Lodge Game Room at 2 pm. We wish you blessings and peace! ~ Deborah Garner Uptown Divas Bid Whist Group Annual Christmas Party & Potluck
