Do you remember those weekend evenings when your parents got together to play cards and socialize? Or maybe you and your college friends would gather to relax, enjoy a beverage and a game of Whist. The Stevens County History Museum would like to revive that tradition on Thursday June 11 from 6-8 p.m. here at the museum. Pull up a chair and have fun! All skill levels are welcome. We'll even tell you a little history behind the game.
