“I think it’s very enjoyable for the seniors to come down here and socialize, plus they get a delicious meal,” said Riverbender.com volunteer Rick Hornsey.
For only $5.00, lunch will be provided by Brian Runge of River City Cider House in Grafton provides a delicious meal for the guests of Adult Game Day.
“We get all types of groups that come in, anyone is invited,” said Hornsey. “United Methodist brings a bus and there is a whole group of people that play wii bowling.”
The event is set up as an open type of game day where people come in and play their favorite games such as pinochle and bridge and other card games that many don’t play as often anymore.
“My favorite part is simply coming out here and getting together to play bridge,” said Bouton. “It’s a great atmosphere, unlike some places where you can’t drink coffee. I would love to see more people come out.”
