💖 Galentine’s Day Bunco & Potluck 💖

# 🎲 Valentine’s Bunco — Galentine’s Day Celebration!

Dice, food, and laughter—the perfect combo! If you can throw dice and play musical chairs, you can play Bunco—no skill required. This is a lighthearted, fast-paced dice game all about luck, laughter, and meeting new friends. Whether you’re a seasoned roller or a total newbie, you’ll fit right in.

### ⚠️ Important Update: Prepayment Required

Due to many last minute cancellations and no-shows within 36 hours of our last event, prepayment is now required to secure your spot for Bunco.

This policy is about fairness and respect for the community. Supplies are purchased in advance, prizes are prepared, the venue is reserved, and many attendees commit time and money to bring food for everyone.

Last-minute cancellations create unnecessary cost and waste and impact not just the host, but fellow members as well.

We fully understand that unexpected work obligations or illness can happen. However, when you RSVP, you are making a commitment to the community that you plan to attend and participate.

To attend, prepayment is required, or an alternative arrangement must be made in advance. Payment or arrangements must be completed by January 31, 2026 to secure your spot.

Cancellation / Refund Policy: Cancellations received on or before January 31, 2026 are eligible for a refund. Cancellations after this date are non-refundable, if we cannot fill your spot as supplies and materials will have already been purchased.
