April Bunco

Bunco is still alive and well in Oaklyn Hills, as Tuesday night, April 19, proved! Krystal was the host, with Cara as her helper, and guests enjoyed a delicious spread of food and four exciting rounds of the addictive game!

Krystal was the winner for the most Buncos... hands down! (Wait - the hostess won? Was this rigged?) :)


Paige won a roll-off for most losses for the night.


And with a three-way tie for most wins, a heated roll-off took place, with Toni coming out the overall winner.


Fun times are being planned for future Bunco games, coming soon to a neighbor's house near you! Look for details in your e-mail box, or contact the event committee to be included on our e-mail list.

We're Thankful for Bunco!

November's neighborhood Bunco event took place at the home of Kristin on Tuesday the 16th. With 15 players, 1 baby (Brooke paid a visit!) and 1 ghost (that's 4 tables of Bunco!), the lively group of girls rolled through several fun rounds.

More players meant more money in the kitty -- and more ties!

After a few exciting roll-offs, winners were finalized, with Amy and Cindy sharing the win for "most Buncos."


Christy C. claimed the top prize of "most wins."


And Kimberly (and baby girl) walked away with "most losses" for the night.


The girls are taking the month of December off for vacations and holidays but will be back in January for more Bunco fun! If you are new to the neighborhood and would like to play, please e-mail the event committee at oaklynhillseventcommittee@gmail.com

Spooktacular October Bunco

On Tuesday, October 19, Bunco night in Oaklyn Hills experienced a little Halloween twist, as the ladies enjoyed snacking on some mysteriously eerie goodies, like brain goo salad, putrid punch, monster fingers, mini mummies... and eyeballs! (AKA: strawberry pretzel salad, citrus punch, cheese sticks, pigs in a blanket and chocolate-covered Oreos.)




Beth opened up her home as the hostess, and Season was her helper. Halloween costumes were welcome... but not required! Beth was sporting some swashbuckling pirate garb. Season came dressed as a hippie - complete with armpit hair! And Cathryn, in all black, modeled a sparkly-fun witch's hat!


The girls played several rounds of the fast-paced, dice-rolling game, while munching on all the ghoulish goodies! But in the end, Brandi won for "most Buncos."

Christy and Cara tied (and shared) for "most wins."


And our fearless leader, Paige, did not leave empty handed... she took the title of "most losses.

Next month's event will be held at the home of Kristin! More details to come soon!

September Bunco

September's Bunco event took place on Tuesday, September 21, at Tina's home on Rolling Hills Drive (an appropriately named street for a fun group of dice rollers)!

As usual, the women had loads of fun, enjoying great food, great conversation and several exciting rounds of the neighborhood's favorite game!

Mindy won this time for most losses.


Toni took home the prize for the most Buncos.


And Cathryn was the big winner for the evening!


October's Bunco will be a Halloween-themed event at Beth's house on October 19. Costumes welcome!

August Bunco Baby Shower!



August's Bunco night on Tuesday the 17th at Christy's home on Lakeland Ridge took on a whole new level of fun... and surprise... as THREE of our neighborhood Bunco girls were treated to a secret, surprise BABY shower!



The dice were put aside for the evening, and the baby games overruled, with the group drawing portraits of their babies (without looking at the paper!) and sniffing "dirty" diapers to determine the brand of melted chocolate inside.

Everyone enjoyed an amazing spread of delectable food, strawberry punch, a cute-as-can-be baby carriage cake (decorated by Season)... and some scrumptious gourmet apple favors (created by Kristin).


Thanks to everyone who helped make this "Bunco" event possible! It was a wonderful time to celebrate friendships made and to recognize Paige, Cara and Tina... and their new little ones!

* Regularly scheduled Bunco nights will return in September at Tina's house!

More Bunco, Rolling in July

July's Bunco event took place at Season's home, with Beth helping, on Tuesday the 20th. The lively group of ladies munched on delicious snacks (as always!), caught up on all the latest news and events and sped through numerous rounds of Bunco, with a ghost filling in one chair.

Cara took home the most wins for the evening... but declined to pose for a photo, even though pregnancy is treating her very well!


Newbie, Kim, showcased the infamous beginner's luck and was on a roll all evening long! She even won for most Buncos, after a heated roll-off with Amy and Beth.

But Amy still walked away happy, taking home the prize for "most losses." She is shown here striking the very familiar "Bunco loser" pose.


The next evening of dice-rolling fun is scheduled for August 17 at the home of Christy B. Hope to see y'all there!
