Bunco (& Left-Right-Center)
TUES Dec 12 @ 7:30pm
Bring: $5 ante for Bunco; $3 for L-R-C (exact change appreciated!); and a beverage or snack to share.
RSVP: email Kessa Glisic, kessaglisic@gmail.com, for location details.
About the Games: Bunco is an entertaining, simple dice game, with no experience required. It’s played in multiple rounds with players alternating turns rolling the dice to match the target number. Whoever wins the most rounds is the overall winner. And because players rotate tables, it is a great way to meet and chat with different people. Left-Right-Center is an even simpler game, faster moving than Bunco, and is played at the end of the evening. Did we mention there’s no experience required?
Book Club…No Baggage: A Minimalist Tale of Love and Wandering (by Clara Bensen)
THURS Dec 14 @ 7:30 pm
RSVP: email suemstapleton@gmail.com
Newly recovered from a quarter-life meltdown, Clara Bensen decided to test her comeback by signing up for an online dating account. She never expected to meet Jeff, a wildly energetic university professor with a reputation for bucking convention. They barely know each other’s last names when they agree to set out on a risky travel experiment spanning eight countries and three weeks. The catch? No hotel reservations, no plans, and best of all, no baggage.
Lunch Bunch
FRI Dec 15 @12:00pm @ Artistry on the Green, 2027 Mass Ave, Lexington
Take a break from it all and enjoy a special lunch with us at the beautiful Artistry restaurant right in town.

Bring: A small donation for the Lexington Food Pantry. The food pantry is in need of toiletry items such as: shampoo/conditioner, hand/body lotion, body wash, TP, tissues, paper towels. We will collect and deliver to the pantry that day.
