Have You Ever Attended A BUNCO® Tournament or Fundraiser? Yes

Where and When If You Want To Share? We did a fundraiser in October 2007, one February 2, 2008 and have two more scheduled -one on August 16, 2008 in Portland and one October 11, 2008 in Seaside.There is information available at www.portlandbunco.com

Favorite BUNCO® Party Themes Or Recipes? I love pajama and Christmas themes. I love when everyone gets the giggles and just has a fantastic time. We had a very successful COWBOY theme which surprised me.

Other Hobbies And Interests? I am the perpetual volunteer - I run our bunco group and a weight loss group. I also volunteer for my church and my children's school.

Anything Else You Want To Share With The BUNCOspace Community? We are a bit different in the size of group we play and in the fact that we meet in a public venue. I think it has been a very successful group to date and hope it continues to thrive.

What a hectic time!

OK, so I am not as good blogging on here as I would like.

Motherhood, school responsibilities, job and bunco all get in the way!

But its for a good cause -we have been busy putting together our second annual BUNCO FOR BREAST CANCER-PORTLAND fundraiser -its scheduled for August 16, 2008. We will be doing a second one (again!) in Seaside, OR on October 11, 2008.

Its difficult working within DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE regulations here in Oregon and not getting busted for Gambling -isn't that funny!?

I cannot wait -another Tournament!

I am so excited! Me and my bunco group were asked to moderate and provide a bunco tournament as part of a women's event that is going on in Seaside Oregon the first weekend in February.

We are on Saturday, February 2, 2008 but there are so many other things going on - a chowder walk, scrapbooking -tons of things.

We are hopeful for a good turnout as we are doing it as a fund raiser for BCRF.

Fingers crossed -it may be an annual thing!
