Just for Fun
205 Chickenfoot Instructor Howard Burkett
No, we aren’t going to learn how to bake and eat chicken feet, it’s about learning to play CHICKENFOOT, also called Chicken-Foot Dominoes. It is a domino game that is best played by 4-7 players. It’s a GREAT family game and very easy to learn. The game was invented by Louis and Betty Howsley in 1986 and is played in rounds, with the goal of the game to have the lowest score at the end of the last round. More people in our community have discovered the great fun playing it. You’ll learn the game from some Montrose area CHICKENFOOT JEDI’s! We will let you know where you can purchase the equipment needed to play at home. A great class to attend with some friends or family (Age 13 and up). We will meet in the Montrose Library Community room. Light snacks will be available. Sign up soon! The class limit is 32 students.
