A Friday Night House of Cards 2/24/11 7:30 PM

Grace's House (map)

Selected By: Michelle L

You're invited to join others from this meetup group at Grace's house in Elkridge for an evening of card games!

Specifically.....

Hearts

and

Spades

 

Bring a simple snack and a non-alcoholic beverage to share with the group.

If you do not know how to play these games, come prepared to learn!

 

This meetup is limited to 15 people.  If you have not attended at least one "public" event with this group, I will change your RSVP to No.  This is an effort to limit an event at a member's home only to people we have previously met.  (There is no perfect solution, however I want to be security conscious.)

RSVPs will be taken seriously for this event.  Do not sign up if you are a 'maybe', only if you can commit to attending.  It isn't cool to RSVP now and change your RSVP on Friday morning.  I will set an automatic waiting list so that if this event fills to capacity and someone does change their RSVP, you'll automatically be moved from the waiting list in the order you signed up. 

 

One more thing.....

I'm looking for more people to be willing to open their homes for limited-size group gatherings for games, movie nights, puzzles, whatever.  They can be semi-short notice (posted a few days beforehand) such as this event.

If you are interested in doing this, please email me.  Many people feel overwhelmed by the size of larger group gatherings and are looking to interact in smaller group settings.  Your home address will not be posted publically, it will only be sent to those who have responded with a Yes RSVP.  I can also limit member hosted events at someone's home to individuals who have attended at least one other meetup (meaning the organizer and other group leaders have met someone).

    I am assuming that everyone signing up knows how to play one or both games? Please Check :

    if you do not know how to play.

    if you have a fairly new deck of cards can you bring it along?

    and if a Euchre game accidently broke out at one of the tables that would be okay too...

    Good morning, Grace:

    Could you please email me your address and your cell phone # sometime today? I am going to a training class tomorrow and I won't have access to computers all day tomorrow. Thank you very much!

    All of you who have yes RSVPs and those on the waiting list should have received an email with my address and phone. Please let me know if you did not.
