About the Instructors:

Carmen and Michele have been friends for more than 30 years and enjoy card games, mahjong, bingo and many other games.

Carmen has been playing canasta for most of her life. It’s always been a big part of her family, and it’s brought everyone together for plenty of fun hands over the years. Lately, she’s especially enjoyed playing with her elderly aunts and cherishes the time they spend together around the card table.

Five years ago, Carmen taught Michele how to play canasta. Since then, Michele has really gotten into the game and has become an avid player.
