Title: Welcome Back! (First Meeting)
Post by: mylittlelucas on January 18, 2011, 12:01:43 AM
Hey everyone, welcome back! I hope everyone's break was enjoyable :).

I bet everyone has missed having Friday Canasta fun, so here's some good news! Our first meeting of the semester will be 7pm - 9pm on Friday, January 21st, in 136 Barrows!
(this will be our room every Friday)

Not a member of the club yet? Well come on out and check us out! Canasta is a strategy (or not, depending on how you want to play =P) based card game, and our club is dedicated to teaching you the essential skills needed to play, creating a community for those who just want to have a good time every Friday night, and having a little friendly competiton :).

Our club features a ladder system (http://canasta.pftq.com/data/members/) where you can earn points by playing other members, with prizes going to the top point earners at the end of the semester. We will also be having a Tournament near the end of the semester, where you can showcase your solo skills and battle for a spot in the top three! Along with the Tournament and ladder system, we also have fun (and sometimes completely random) social events!

So come out this Friday, January 21st, 7-9pm in 136 Barrows to meet new people, learn a new game, and just relax :).
