Featured Activity
Mexican Train Dominoes
Time: Fridays 1:00 pm
Cost: None members
None non-members
Location: Game Room
Description: This month we'd like to shine the light no Mexican Train Dominoes. Mexican Train is a modern version of Dominoes, played with 91 double-twelve dominoes. Between four to eight players may participate, but if less than six people are playing, it is recommended that only the double blank through nine (or a set of Double 9 Dominoes) be used. A unique feature of Mexican Train is the little \"trains\" used for game markers. These may be any sort of marker (such as a bead, button, or coin), but the game\'s more fun if you use actual toy trains. The object of the game is to discard all your dominoes. You discard onto your own train, onto the Mexican train, onto other trains at the station, or onto other players trains. Mexican Train is a fun variation of dominoes, and a great party game. Make sure to have enough dominoes and plenty of the little trains on hand! The train leaves the station on Fridays at 1:00 p.m.

BBQs Kicks off the Summer and 4th of July
By: Mike Sylva
As with most birthdays, it’s a time to get together with family and friends, eat, and celebrate. America’s birthday is no different, so to celebrate it’s 235th, we invited over 150 of our friends for a party! We got the party started a little early, having it on a Friday, so we would continue partying with other friends over the weekend, before the big party on the 4th.
It was a fairly warm day for bbqing, but fortunately for us we chef Marty Steinbrecher on hand to flip burgers in the heat while guests got to sit in the air-conditioned dining room with a cool drink.
We’d like to thank everyone who showed up for this special birthday lunch, especially those who R.S.V.P.’d giving us a chance to order enough food, as well as those who helped us to serve. We’d also like to show our appreciation to Kaiser Permanente for sponsoring the 4th (1st) of July bbq.
