Canasta is an interesting two-pack card game based on Rummy, which is best played with four people in a 2x2 partnership. It can however also be played individually. It is less complicated than Bridge but still demands the use of our brains. If you like card games, you will certainly enjoy this!
We are a mixed gender group, so all welcome. Almost all of the present group had never played before, but are now competent players, so do not worry if you are a novice as you will be very welcome and soon be playing with confidence. There is also an option to learn Bolivia (a variant of Canasta) for those who wish to take it further.
Our venue is The Angel & Harp, Dunmow on Monday mornings from 10.00-12.30 (not bank holidays). There is no charge for us to use the pub's room but we are asked to purchase drinks (what sort is entirely up to you)! On arrival, ask at the bar for the u3a Canasta group. There are a few steps up into the room.
Parking is free.
