Lavender Womyn - Salem Lesbian Group

Bunco!! Come Join in on the FUN!!

Wait!! Is that a cow bell I hear, and money I smell!?! Why, yes, it is! That must mean it's time for Bunco! Start warming up your wrist and practice your dice rolling to see if you can roll those Bunco's!!

If you've never been to a Lavender Womyn event before, then now's the time to go. This is a great, interactive game where you get a chance to meet many new women. You are constantly changing tables and switching partners. If you have any ideas about sitting quietly in a corner, you can forget that. This game will pull you in, and you'll be laughing and having fun before you know it. If you can roll dice, then you can play this game. The cost is $5 to play. We will also have a traveling prize, which is always a lot of fun to toss around during the game, and see who gets to take it home.

Our Bunco events are one of our most popular and fun events. Come join us for a great time on Sunday, February 19th, 2012 @ 3:00pm at Kim and Kathy's home in West Salem.

Bunco is an easy dice game to learn.  No skills or knowledge necessary.  Just bring your laughter button and you'll be good to go.  We'll go over the rules and play a practice game to get you warmed up.  The cost is $5.00 to play, which goes towards keeping Lavender Womyn up and running.

We'll also play the 50/50 game where you get to take home half of the money in the pot, so be sure to bring some moola to play that as well. The tickets are only .50 cents each, but you can buy as many as you want to increase your chances of winning.  The other half of the money goes to Lavender Womyn. 

And, as a special bonus, we'll be raffling off two tickets to see the Cirgue Du Soleil show in Portland.  For more information about that show, you can click here

Items to bring:

1) $5.00 to play Bunco. Extra money to play the 50/50 game, if you want.
2) Food to share.
3) Your own beverage. Alcohol is okay, but please drink responsibly so everyone can have a good time.

Come on out and have some fun! You'll be glad you did!

Description

Qi Gong with Pam Hampton Qi (chee) is the energy in and around your body; qi to our bodies is like electricity to an appliance, without it, we don't function. "Qi" literally means air, breath of life or vital energy and "Gong" means the self discipline skill of working, cultivating and balancing the Qi. Very slow graceful movements combined with mental concentration and relaxed breathing are used to increase a person's vital energy (qi). You tap into a well of energy that is in nature, everywhere and funnel it through your body. The practice of Qi Gong is over 5000 years old and is practiced by over 200 million people around the world to strengthen the flow of life force and improve health. There are over 3000 styles of Qi Gong but the goal is always the same, to create an environment in the body conducive to self healing, so that the practitioner can achieve and maintain physical, emotional and spiritual well being. Sundays 5:00 pm - 6:00pm $10.00 Pam Hampton

Suzanne Westenhoefer in Portland, OR

• Friday, January 13, 2012
• Time

  8:00pm until 11:00pm

Description

What words best describe Comedian Suzanne Westenhoefer? How about bold, bawdy, and just plain hilarious? Not afraid to ask tough questions that uncover the laughs underneath, Suzanne’s made a career out of telling the truth. And the truth is, life is funny. After entering the world of comedy on a dare, Suzanne has been delivering gay material in mainstream clubs to straight audiences and proudly performing within the LGBT community ever since. She became the first openly lesbian comic ever to appear on television in 1991 on an episode of Sally Jesse Raphael entitled “Breaking the Lesbian Stereotype…Lesbians Who Don’t Look Like Lesbians.”
