The Monday afternoon cribbage players will be taking the summer off from
cribbage and return during early fall for the next greatest challenge. Whether

help you at whatever level of knowledge you join them with. Rest, relax and see
you in September. The doors are always open to participate for an impromptu
game of cribbage regardless of what month it is!
