Progressive Euchre Night

Progressive Euchre Night

Tue, Nov 17, 11:30 PM
From Everyone Gets 2Play

Come solo or bring friends to this fun evening of casual progressive euchre! All skill levels welcome. We created this evening as a chance to have fun and make new friends. If you are looking for a serious, cutthroat night of swashbuckling card play, this event might not be for you. In this version of euchre, after everyone has dealt, you will switch partners and sometimes tables until you've played with everyone in your group. Each player tracks all points scored on their own scoresheet, which accumulates with each partner you play with. We'll have some light snacks and some non-alcoholic drinks. Feel free to bring something similar to share, or to keep all to yourself. We won't judge. Well, maybe a little. Doors open at 6:15 p.m., and games will begin around 6:30 p.m.
