Shawna & I are forming a new Pokeeno group to play once a month... Each person brings a wrapped gift (usually valued at $15) for the theme that month (for example..December Pokeeno would be a Christmas/Wintery Gift) The goal is to win a gift or gifts by playing pokeeno. pokerKeeno.jpg (7.75K) Number of downloads: 13 It is, essentially, a modified version of bingo. Each player gets one of twelve 6-by-9-inch cardstock boards. A five-by-five grid of playing cards is printed on each board. Each person takes turn dealing by calling out cards one by one, & players mark off called cards on their boards using the included mini poker chips. The players in this group will take turns hosting the pokeeno party and everyone brings a snack-type food or dessert. Ages can range from 15 to 85. Please let us know if you'd like to join us...

Either a Friday or Saturday night is a good night for our group.

Anyone else want to join us? Lots of fun. We will probably aim for our first get together after Christmas. (Too much going on this time of year!) But we will set a time and let everyone know when to plan. FUN FUN FUN!!~~

I used to work with a lady who loved Pokeno. She played using pennies as chips --- the winner got everyone's pennies.
It's a fun game --- goes great with a glass of wine, BTW.

January's theme for Pokeeno will be "winter wear"
You'll bring a wrapped gift (approx. $15 item), such as fun socks, scarves, gloves, hats, PJ's, long johns, etc)
You can't tell anyone what your gift is...
Then we'll play the game in order to win the gifts...
Whoever hosts the Feb game, willchoose the theme for that month

Sounds like fun. We should be able to get some good after Christmas deals. Do we have a date and a place yet?

I was thinking about our first game being Friday, Jan 20th at 6:30 at my house. That should give us enough timto recoup after the holidays.
Is this night okay for everyone...or would another night/time be better?

I don't mind, but Friday night does tend to be a family night for us. But I will do it if a week night doesnt work for everyone else. ~hugs~ This will be fun!!

if everyone is ok with it...we'll go ahead with Friday Jan 20th for the first game and whoever hosts the second month, can choose the night.... Sound good?

I might consider this, but not on a Friday night since it is a women only thing and that and Saturday nights are froggy's nights off.
