Message from our May 30, 2013 Euchre Evening Meeting
Posted
on May 31, 2013
Today's breakfast meeting was readily abandoned in favour of a Euchre social evening.
Summary of the Euchre Evening:
- Danielle graciously hosted Rotarians, spouses, family and friends in her building's Party Room.
- Following food and refreshment, and some brief instructions for the novices, we sat down to an evening of fellowship and...competition.
- You see, Danielle had consulted with her sister, an expert in organising euchre tournaments and it would be each player playing alone for two different pots - one for successfully "going it alone" and one for the overall high score. That set the tone.
- In the tournament format, the winning team rotated to the next table and the losing team stayed put. In each game, we each had a new partner and kept our own scores. As it would turn out, some people moved and some did not!
- At the end of the evening, Don was that last to be holding the coffee cup for successfully "going it alone".
- And, Robin was the overall winner with the highest score. Robin then handed her prize back to the club!
- A great evening with the talk of doing this as a club fundraiser in future.
- MANY THANKS TO DANIELLE!!
- Lastly, while there were no announcements this evening, do take a peek at the August 15 Golf Tourney reminder on the web site main page.
