    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!

    Welcome to my world!

    Monday, September 24, 2007, 11:46 PM PST [General]

    What can I say - my world right now revolves around bunco.  Even better, I have found a way of combining my passion for bunco (addiction?) with raising money for breast cancer research so I am hooked.


    I am having a great time working on a bunco fundraiser called BUNCO FOR BREAST CANCER.  We have teamed up with the Breast Cancer Research Foundation http://www.bcrfcure.org to present the first ever BUNCO FOR BREAST CANCER event in Oregon http://portlandbunco.tostenilsson.com.

    We know it will be a huge success but we need your help!  Make sure and join or donate today!
