Welcome to the Euchre Club of Chicago weekly newsletter
-- a collection of event information, club news, gossip,
advice, and things that amuse us from the Internets. And
there's no truth to the rumor that we're smarter than a 5th
grader.
If you have ideas, gossip to divulge, humorous thoughts,
abject praise, rampant criticism, ideas to improve the club,
or you're just kinda lonely and want to talk, send a note to
euchrechicago@yahoo.com.
|
We're back! |
 |
That golden hue you see on many of your fellow club
members can only be attributed to the wild success
of our first ever (and now annual!) Spring Break! A
fantastic time was had by all (really, just ask
around), and we're already making plans for next
year's getaway.
Alas, there are no pictures to post from the
festivities, so you'll have to use your imagination,
and join us next year if you really want to know
what happened.
Oh, and if you lost your watch, your sunglasses or
your innocence, please see ECC President Ron Hall.

Spend Easter with your Real Family |
|
|
In case you're wondering, there will indeed be cards
on Easter Sunday, March 23. As is tradition, we'll
now make our annual Easter joke: Be sure to check
out Sunday Director Geoff Dankert's basket.
Come dressed as a giant bunny and play for free. And
wearing a rabbit fur coat doesn't count.
And one more reminder that playtime at Charlie's
has officially changed to 6pm.

Hall of Fame Nominations |
|
|
The board is still accepting suggestions for this
year's induction into the ECC Hall of Fame.
Inductees should be people who have shown terrific
sportsmanship, congeniality, and make the club a
better place through their participation.
If there's someone you'd like to suggest, please
send and email to
euchrechicago@yahoo.com and tell us why this
person deserves to be inducted.
The Board of Directors will announce its decision
