FAQs

Who are the organizer(s)?
Matt (admin of this blog), Stacey, and Jeff-one and often all of us are at every event!

When do you meet?
We get together every other Tuesday at 6PM. It goes until the last person leaves...

Where do you meet?
Spot Coffee on East Ave-near the Little Theater

Where can I park?
You can park along the street at meters-they don't charge in the city after six. You can also park for free at the Scio street garage which is right next to the shop. Other lots nearby charge, so be aware.

Do you have a seating section?
No-rather than pay the outrageous fees we take whatever tables we are able to. If no tables are free, be patient. Other patrons generally are willing to give up their chairs if you need one and ask nicely. 

How does gameplay work?
Basically you come in (and don't worry about only staying until a certain time, or getting there exactly at 6-come and leave and when you want), find a table with other card players and sit down and play. There will be times when there is an 'odd' number, but as you'll soon find people are friendly and you can converse while sitting next to them or at another table. Some people play Cutthroat, any other games are welcome. We don't play for money and it is not a "tournament". Ideally if there are other tables playing, the losers move tables. If you can't move yet then switch partners. It's really up to you and your table and partner. We are all there to make new friends and get to know different people, so as much as possible try to mingle around and don't get 'stuck' with the same person all night. 

Can anybody play?
Yes-people in this group range from experts to novices and everywhere in between. We are patient with new folks and even experienced players can walk away learning something new!

Do I need to bring cards?
If you want to bring a deck feel free to-otherwise organizers will have a spare deck or three on hand. I carry around 5.

Can I bring my kids?
Spot is a coffee shop, so kids should be alright there depending upon your comfort level, however the games are for the adults only.

Tuesday Night Euchre at Spot Coffee-April 6-6PM-Spot Coffee

Welcome anyone coming here for the first time. Hopefully when I get some time I will jazz this page up a little bit with some images. Our next euchre night is Tuesday April 6 at Spot Coffee 200 East Ave. Rochester, NY 14604. We start playing around 6PM (I get there a little early) and it goes until Spot closes (11PM or when players want to leave). Come when you wish, stay as long as you are able. All levels are welcome. We are a friendly bunch of folks who play euchre just for the fun of it, and to meet new people and make new friends. Please invite your friends to come out and join you and us, and join our mailing list by sending an email with the subject "euchre" to rochestereuchre .at. gmail dot com. Thanks and look forward to seeing you!

Welcome

Hi all, thanks for stopping by!

I am the organizer for the Rochester Euchre Meetup group, and I am setting this blogspot up as a possible alternative to the meetup, which costs me 72 dollars every six months. My goal has been to keep the group free, but I have had to institute a fee for those joining. While it is nominal, it is not my ideal. 

This has been linked in a message board and an email from the meetup. My goal is to get as many people aware of this site as possible, to collect email addresses so that I can run this independently and keep the group free. Please send an email to rochestereuchre .at. gmail dot com with "Euchre" as the subject and you will be added.

If you know someone who may be interested in joining people for friendly games of euchre every week, pass this site along to them. We are aiming to meet every Tuesday night at 6PM at Spot Coffee on East Ave.  All levels are welcome. 

Thank You again for your support and hope to see you out there!
