  • 6:00 - 10:00  Gringo Bingo

    Bingo

    Back by popular demand, this old standard is made more interesting and exciting through the addition of strategies used not only to win in one evening, but also over the course of the entire 2017 series. Real pesos are at stake, and players will have a chance to sweeten their cruising kitties if they play their bingo cards right. If you've watched or participated in the play in previous years, you'll remember the smiling faces, laughter, and friendly cursing that make this evening so much fun.

    Mexican Night

    "La Patrona" (Marisa Bango) is a very popular singer who has been performing to sold-out houses in La Cruz for the last year. We have been fortunate in convincing her, along with her backup musicians, to perform for us during a night with a distinctly Mexican flavor. Even though Spanish may be a challenge for some of us, you will feel like she is singing only to you as she moves among the crowd. Our chefs will offer a selection of Mexican dishes to accompany the music of the region. This is an evening that you don't want to miss! Cocktails will start at 6pm, followed by a Mexican dinner at 6:30pm, and the show at 7pm. The dinner will include tortilla soup, chicken enchiladas, a taco and rice and beans.

    VYC members in the area are invited to attend this informative, one-hour meeting that takes place monthly during the season. Each meeting will feature a guest speaker who will address a topic of general interest to the membership. Additionally, members of the leadership team will update us on progress towards our short- and long-term plans, as well as our financial results. There will also be a "town hall" section where members can address questions to the leadership and present their own viewpoints regarding the activities and direction of the Club. The meetings are conveniently scheduled to follow card days and precede cocktail hour.
