Want to Play Cribbage?
 
CRIBBAGE PLAYERS:
I am a beginner cribbage player and would like to get better.  I am wondering if there are a couple of Rotarians who know how to play cribbage who would like to play more and teach a beginner along the way?
If so, please contact me and we will see about meeting and playing.  My home is available.
