Drunko Babes of Midlothian, Virginia
Formed in January 2008
Our bunco group started up very recently, in January 2008. We had such a good time at a New Year's Eve party that we decided we needed to get together more often and our Bunco group was born. We meet up once a month, usually on the 3rd Saturday of the month and everyone takes a turn hosting (although we're pretty informal about the turn-taking). We have slowly morphed into having 'themed' nights - Cinco de Mayo (with killer blue margaritas), St. Patrick's feast, wine and cheeses, grill nights (complete with s'mores in a fire pit), and chocolate for Valentine's Day, just to name a few.
BUNCO TIPS
Our newest bit of fun is a traveling pig. The pig arrived at the January host's house with a poem telling about his life and why he has run away from his farm to our Bunco group. The end of the poem instructed the member to 'provide new text'. So the pig has traveled, going to a new member's house each month, complete with a new poem or story! We are saving the poems that get written and have put them in a plastic sleeve so they don't go missing. The pig is DEFINITELY a highlight of our get-togethers!

Maria Geraci Here is the newest addition to the Geraci family. Right now, her name is Truffles. That could change, but not if Megan Geraci has anything to do with it. She's a 6 week old Dachshund puppy and she's absolutely adorable. The blue blanket came from her mother's house, so she's pretty firmly attached to that.
