The Canasta/Samba group continues to be a popular Wednesday afternoon activity. We have 32 members on our list with 16 to 20 players each game day. After a trial run of playing during July and August, we now happily play year-round.

The Cambridge Residence on Hymus Boulevard in Pointe-Claire, where two of our players live, continues to allow us to play in their Card Room. We are very grateful for their support. In appreciation (as suggested by the Cambridge), we make an annual group donation to the Theresa Dellar Palliative Care Residence in Kirkland.

Samba is an easy game to learn. It has a few challenges but that’s the fun part. New players are always welcome. If you are interested, contact Mary Ellen Montague.
