We hosted Marbles on November 5th @ 6:30pm with 10 people in attendance. They were George & Peggy Hoffman, John & Judy Lardin, Nick & Vickie Angelosanto, Brett & Lynne Barnes and Cal & Jan Cashman. Each couple brought a dish to pass so we had some delicious food to enjoy. After eating, talking and watching some football, we got down to the serious part of the evening — playing Marbles!
The scores from top to bottom were George 13, Vickie 11, Brett 10, Nick 8, John 7, Lynne 5, Cal 4, Jan 3, Judy 2 and Peggy 1. These was a lot of ” friendly ” competition which made the evening fun for everyone.
We enjoyed hosting our friends and look forward to the rest of the Marbles season.

November Hosts
Marbles will be played on the first Saturday of each month beginning in October through March. Each night of Marbles will include three games of Marbles. Each player will pay $3.00 for the night. A season long prize will be awarded for those who would like to participate. To participate you must tell the committee that you are interested and pay the $5.00 fee. The prize money will be distributed to the top 1/3 of players based on points. The points will be for the top five scores for the season as shown below.
Please bring your own beverage. The host may determine if couples should bring appetizers or if other food will be arranged (i.e. everyone chip in for pizza).
Marbles will be played with two teams of three, if there are six players on the board or two teams of two if there are four players on the board. Cards will be drawn to determine on which board a player will be playing. A draw of marbles will determine partners. As an example if there are twelve players at a house six kings and six queens will be spread face down and drawn by the players. The host will determine which table will be the one designated by the king or queen. Once at the correct table one of each color marble will be separated and drawn by the players to determine teams. Red always deals first.
Each game is expected to take approximately one hour to play. It is recommended that play begins early in order to be able to finish at a reasonable time. Kid friendly houses should probably begin early. The normal start time is 6:30 but can be earlier at the host’s option. The host may decide to play on a different day or at an earlier time, however, because of scheduling it would be best to arrange that several weeks prior to allow for schedule conflicts.
Nightly pay out
Any money left will be paid out on most points as follows:
If $9.00 is left | If $6.00 is left | If $3.00 is left |
