When: Monthly on Friday afternoons 2:00 PM-4:00 PM
Second Friday of the month
Venue: Group Leaders Home

If you are looking for a fun, sociable afternoon, come along and play Five Hundred, an entertaining trick-taking card game that plays like a less formal cousin of bridge.  It is a four-handed game where you will play in partnerships, working together to be the first team to score 500 points.

Absolute beginners are very welcome; you can easily learn the basic rules and strategy in just one session.  More experienced players are equally welcome of course. 

The group meets at 2-4 pm on the second Friday of each month, at the Group Leader's home.
