What we’re about
This is a free meet up group. No fees required at all.
We meet at my personal residence in Lewisville, TX, once a month to play spades. We will always play on Saturday evenings starting (food) at 5:30pm and play from 6pm to 10pm at a minimum, longer for spades addicts if desired.
Food will be pot luck style where everyone brings a finger food or similar for the group to munch on before and during play. There are no expectations about type of food or quantity, but generally speaking there tends to be too much food. So don’t go overboard and do what is easiest for you. The point of the group is to have fun playing spades while meeting new people without stress.
Tables, chairs, cards, paper, pens, plates, utensils, cups, drinks (non alcoholic), napkins, music, frig and the entire kitchen are all provided. If you want to bring alcoholic drinks, feel free to do so. We will also be playing with multiple random partners through the evening, switching partners once per hour. Details of those logistics will be shared once you arrive.
The first meetup will be scheduled once we see how many people show interest (likely starting in June). I have room for as many as 8 tables of 4 players (32) at a minimum which has been plenty in the past.
And yes, I have hosted a spades meetup group in the past pre-COVID. So lots of experience with hosting, but I’m horrible at cooking…hence pot luck style.
Official rules of play will be posted in the group.
