Our Gyro Club is a social club for men. There are three local Gyro Clubs \u2013 the Camosun Club, a small club in Sidney, and ours, the Victoria Club. The regular activities listed below provide opportunities for our members to congregate and
enjoy the company of other men. While it is a \u201cmen\u2019s only\u201d club, some of the activities include their partners and spouses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dinner Meetings<\/font><\/strong> These bi-monthly meetings are the \u201cbackbone\u201d of our club. They are normally held on the 2nd<\/sup> and 4th<\/sup> Mondays of September through June at the Uplands Golf Club. The bar opens at 5:00 pm followed by dinner at 6:00 pm. There is always a very good dinner, then a brief business meeting, a talk by a guest speaker and a wine draw. Attendance at these dinners, while not compulsory, is important for solidifying friendships, and learning what is going on with other members and their activities. After you have taken a vacation away from Victoria, the next dinner gives an immediate update as to what you missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n App & Yap<\/font><\/strong> This is a monthly wine and appies event where attendees are asked to bring an appetizer to share and whatever they want to drink. It is a casual event where members mingle throughout the evening and has proven to be very popular. The organizers find hosts from among the regular attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Coffee Mornings<\/font><\/strong> On Tuesday mornings which are not on the day after a Dinner Meeting, members are invited to meet for coffee. This provides members with the opportunity to share expertise and swap stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Monday Lunches<\/font><\/strong> On the first Monday of the month, members are invited to meet at a local restaurant for lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Golf<\/font><\/strong> Every Wednesday, a group of members play golf, usually at the Cordova Bay Golf Course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Nine & Dine<\/font><\/strong> This activity includes members and spouses and any friends they wish to invite. Participants gather at the Cordova Bay Golf Course every Friday in the late afternoon, play 9 holes of golf, and then stay for supper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bridge<\/font><\/strong> A group of not-overly-serious bridge players meet on-line using Trickster to play a few rounds of bridge. The games are played on Thursday evenings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Poker<\/font><\/strong> The game is Texas Holdem. Once a month a group gets together to play poker, usually the 3rd<\/sup> Thursday of the month. Hosting rotates from house to house. Stakes are enough to make it interesting but with a cap on buy-ins.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Our Gyro Club is a social club for men.
