New Marbles Game 2025/26 Season

  • November 2025
  • PATTI CUMMINGS, HERONS GLEN

Another season playing the board game sometimes called Jokers and Marbles or Jokers and Pegs has begun. However, by either name, everyone calls it FUN.

Sunday, October 12, the new season of Marbles began. Those who have played before know that the groups meet in the ballroom at 6:30 p.m., bringing their own game and group of players. The group consists of four to eight players, half of which are men and half women. You play three games, and the wins are tracked and announced after each game night. So far this season, men have 10 wins and women have five wins. Just five tables of players attended, but we expect as more residents return, that number will increase.

Our next game night is Sunday, November 16 in the ballroom at 6:30 p.m., and the event is loosely organized, so as soon as your group plays three games you could leave if you want or stay and play extra (those wins will not count). There is no Marbles night scheduled in December, but the games resume January 11, 2026. Other dates will be published in the next magazine issue.

We look forward to seeing both familiar faces from previous seasons and new players too. Mark your calendar for November 16 at 6:30 p.m. for a FUN night.
