If you are interested in PARTICIPATING please email myself or Kim. We'd love to see some new faces!

Next GAME: TUESDAY, February 9th. Kristin Mack is hosting and her address is: 5525 Pebble Ct. and start time is 8:00 p.m., this month is a little different.

Get ready for THE most exciting Bunco night that's not JUST a Bunco night!

Here's the scoop:

Swap Party:

It's almost time for another "Bunco" -- in quotes due to less playing lately and more trading of stuff!

This Valentine's Day-themed get-together is a mostly kid-oriented swap. Bring toys, clothes, equipment, books, games, etc. that you aren't using anymore, and you can trade for someone else's kid stuff. Bring lots. Wouldn't you like to help a good friend and get stuff for your family at the same time?

In case you have little bittys/are planning on more/have grandbabies... and may still need your stuff (or don't have any littles), feel free to bring other assorted stuff (adult, housewares, etc.) to trade.

Food/drinks to share should be white, pink, or red in the spirit of the season!!

New Year Bunco/Swap Party!! January 12th

Are you interested in making friends? Meeting neighbors? Just having some fun with other women?

Stone Brooke Crossing has a Women's Bunco Group that is always looking for players. We meet the second TUESDAY of the month at 7:30 p.m. and alternate homes. The cost is just $5 to participate and you could walk away with some great prize$.

If you are interested in PARTICIPATING please email myself or Kim. We'd love to see some new faces!

Next GAME: TUESDAY, January 12th. Kim Daugherty is hosting and her address is: 5505 Pebble Ct. and start time is 8:00 p.m., this month is a little different.

Get ready for THE most exciting Bunco night that's not JUST a Bunco night!

Here's the scoop:

First half of the night: Post Christmas Swap Party (details below)
Second half of the night: Quick game of Bunco so that a few lucky ladies can also leave with some extra cash in their hands!

Swap Party:

Think of this party like a guilt-free form of re-gifting. But, not only can you bring all those "gifts" your inlaws gave you for Christmas that you "love" so much, you can also clean out your closet/house of things you just don't use that much anymore.

What to Bring to Swap:
-Books, DVD's and CD's
-Housewares, Kitchen gadgets, appliances
-Clothing, shoes, purses, accessories
-Home Decor

NO: Kids items - we'll do this another time

What's Swap-Worthy:
-Items must be in good used condition...no ratty gym shorts or a Scrabble game missing the letter Q.

Come with an extra tote for bringing home your finds.

The System:
-We will draw numbers to establish the order in which we will shop. Each person can claim 2 items at a time and we'll continue the rotation until the items are claimed or everyone is done shopping.

-You can only bring home the same number of items that you brought. If you bring 5 items, you can only leave with 5 items.

Sound fun?? Great! I'm pumped too. Bring snacks that are easy to eat while shopping! We won't begin the swap until everyone that RSVP's is there, so PLEASE BE PROMPT!!
