🎲 Join Us for a Bunco Night! 🎲 Join us for an exciting evening of Bunco, where all are invited to come together for fun, laughter, and friendly competition! Please bring $5 to play! 🌟 No previous Bunco experience necessary! This is a fun, luck-based game of dice perfect for groups. With table rotations and a bell to signal rounds, it’s easy to learn and guarantees great fun for everyone. **Game Plan:** Each attendee needs to bring $5 cash to play. Cash will be converted to quarters for playing prior to the first round. 25¢ per round; Each player will contribute a quarter for every round we play. Don't worry; the winners of each round get to keep their quarters! The remaining money from each round will go into our collection jar. At the end of the year, we'll donate these funds to an agreed upon local non-profit which helps those facing food insecurity. ***\*\*Please send organization suggestions via DM message in the Meetup App prior to the inaugural Bunco event in January 2026 so the group can discuss and make a selection\*\**** Let’s make our Bunco nights not only fun but also impactful! **Attendees are also asked to bring one of the following:** A wine or beverage of your choice A fun nosh to share The host will provide glasses, wine openers, plates, and napkins **What to Expect:** Friendly games and an introduction to the house rules Opportunities to meet new people and connect with fellow enthusiasts Light snacks and refreshments to keep you energized Don’t miss this chance to dive into the fun of Bunco while supporting a great cause!

This is a single person event for an in-person quantum healing session in Alexandria, VA.

The session is based on Dolores Cannon’s *Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique* and takes about three hours to complete. We have human friendly cats. There are some small activities that should be accomplished prior to the meeting, for a more quality session, so I will be requesting an email address to send instructions to. It is important to let me know prior to the session if you cannot make it to allow someone else to take your space. See you soon!

The Broncos are rolling into the playoffs with momentum, grit, and something to prove. This team has learned how to win the hard way—tight games and tough defenses. Count on the Broncos to bring the energy, control the tempo, and remind everyone why playoff football runs through Mile High. 🧡💙 I am a Broncos fan and I believe. I believe in Mile High Magic and Bleed Orange and Blue. I celebrate the drive and the Mile High Salute. I create the THUNDER, share in the common dream and will forever be a proud citizen of BRONCOS COUNTRY!
