Great cash prizes will be the main feature at the fifth Annual Goan Association of New Jersey (GOANJ) Whist Drive "Seven Hands" cards tournament.
The tournament will be held on Saturday, October 21 at the Hightstown Firehouse Hall in central Jersey. It will be followed by bingo and a "Sing-A-Long" session. Three others events in November and December will culminate the GOANJ 2006 social calendar. For the Faithful, A Half Day Retreat will be held at the Vincentian Renewal Center in the Princeton area on Sunday, November 5. This will be followed by the Children's Christmas Party on Sunday, December 10 at the Hightstown Firehouse Hall. But the highlight of the events will be the annual Holiday (Christmas) Ball on Saturday, December 16 at the Ukranian Cultural Center in Somerset. After their instant success at last year's dance, the popular Toronto band - the "Naked Flame" will be featured again. (Led by the well known bassist and singer- Joe Rebello, the band recently played at a New Jersey goan wedding). Last year's dance was a total sell-out - despite boycotts from certain tri-state areas- depriving many folks including some visiting Toronto guests of tickets. The GOANJ PLanning Committee is taking no chances and cautioning potential attendees to purchase their tickets early to avoid disappointment. This is the second time in the Association's 15-year history that the dance had "maxed" out; and this year's annual summer picnic for members and their non-resident guests also "maxed" out for the first time.
