Cards 500 has again grown significantly compared to our 2023 numbers with 31 registrations for 2024.
It was a very popular family game with some of our older players recalling it was their “go to entertainment” in the era before television.
It seems that 500 brings out the competitive nature in us all but in a friendly social environment.
We had 4 tables set up which makes Room 1 quite “squeezy”. Cards 500 is best played with 4 players but to accommodate the larger numbers some tables have had 5 players. From March we will now have the opportunity to overflow into Room 2 if needed while keeping 4 players per table.
Please let me know by email if you cannot make it to either of our twice monthly sessions. This will avoid any unnecessary set up of extra tables.
Keep shuffling!
