Mixed Cribbage #1 (Pub Crib)

Mixed Cribbage #1 (Pub Crib):
Contact: Maureen Shaw
Phone: 647-384-7725; Email: shawmaureen149@gmail.com

Our group meets year-round on the third Friday of each month at a pub; those who wish first to enjoy lunch together, arrive at 12; those who just want to play crib, while quenching their thirst, come at 1, when play begins. We try to match up those who need a refresher with those who feel pretty confident. Games may have 2, 3 or 4 players, depending upon the needs of those who attend. Often, people will play 2 or 3 games, switching partners after each game so that we get to chat and play with a number of people. Please feel free to reserve your spot by calling or emailing me by the second Friday of any month (so I can reserve the correct number of seats).
