Wichita Prime Timers

Bowling at Seneca Bowl, 1909 S. Seneca
2020-02-29 15:00 - 17:00 (America/Chicago)
I’m having to readjust the bowling schedule so that Jim, who comes all the way from Burden, will be able to join us on his day off.

GAYme Night at Mike & Joe's
2020-02-29 19:00 - 22:00
It’s our Leap Year Day Party, held only once every four years or ever. It’s also Bachelor’s Day, another reason to celebrate with games and movies. And It’s Sword Swallower’s Day; if you can do this, come show us your talent. I guarantee you won’t be a bachelor for long, not even for the night. We’ll have cards, movies and board games. Bring your favorite snacks and beverages to add to our favorite snacks and beverages bar.

Celebrations at Fat Ernie's 2806 S. Hydraulic
2020-03-05 18:30 - 20:00
It may be Cheese Doodle Day, but Fat Ernie’s will do way better than that. It’s also Name Tag Day and we can certainly celebrate that by each one of us wearing one’s own name tag! I forgot to mention, the whole purpose of Celebrations is to celebrate March Birthday Boys and Anniversary couples. Mea culpa.

Breakfast Boys Club at Livingston's Cafe, 4733 E. Douglas
2020-03-07 09:00 - 10:00
No Reservation, but call ahead seating. Formerly Jeannie’s Cafe has expanded (www.kansas.
com/entertainment/restaurants/dining-with-denise-neil/article239770828.html?).
It may be a little early for Plant Power Day, however certainly not for Be Heard Day (but you don’t have to shout!)
I doubt that they have Crown Roast of Pork (Day) on the menu here, but they off er plenty of other good selec􀆟 ons. You can see theirmenu at: https://restaurantguru.com/Livingstons-Cafe-Wichita/menu.

Pitch Night at Mike & Joe's
2020-03-11 19:00 - 22:00
I know sometimes that the world appears to be going down the crapper, but I never knew that there was an actual day for it, World Plumbing Day. I can’t think of a better reason than to play cards with your friends, or these guys. And if you’re wondering what to bring for our favorite snacks and beverages bar, it’s also Oatmeal Nut Waffles Day.

Lunch With The Boys at Sam's Southern Eatery, 6600 W. Central
2020-03-13 11:30 - 13:00
Reserved. Even though it’s World Sleep Day, don’t sleep through this. We’re trying out a brand new restaurant,
it’s part of a chain from Shreveport,Louisiana and features many southern dishes. You can read more about it at: samssoutherneatery.com/https://www.kansas.com/entertainment/restaurants/dining-with-denise-neil/
article237479279.html? You can view their menu at: www.samssouthernwichita.com.
It’s also Ken Day, so bring your favorite Ken. And while it may be Friday, the 13th, since it’s Blame Someone Else Day, if anything goes wrong, blame Ken!

Bowling at Seneca Bowl 1909 S. Seneca
2020-03-14 15:00 - 17:00
It’s Pi Day, not be confused with Pie Day which is a totally different date and a different kind of tasteless pie. It’s also Dribble
to Work Day, and unless you’re a professional basketball player, you probably don’t even care. Or we could just celebrate White Day, not the Klan holiday, but a day when you give back, in kind (Alex, I’ll take Trade for $100), what you received at Valentine’s Day.

Board Meeting at Riverside Cafe, 739 W. 13th St. N.
2020-03-16 18:30 - 20:00
It would seem to me that Lips Appreciation Day and No Selfies Day should be a natural combo. Regardless, we’ll appreciate it if you bring your lips, and the rest of you to board meeting to discuss future events and enjoy a hot meal.
But, remember, No Selfies.

Potluck/Business Meeting at Park City Public Library, 2107 E. 61st St. N. in Park City
2020-03-21 18:30 - 20:00
It’s Healthy Fats Day, which, of course, includes Corn Dog Day, and French Bread Day which inspires me to suggest we should have a Soup and Sandwich menu theme. Not knowing what the weather may be, we’ll have soup, if it’s cold out and sandwiches if it’s not. So bring a hot soup, or sandwich makings, your favorite meats, cheeses, and garnishes. Don’t forget desserts. It’s also Memory Day, so remember that we’re having Tyler Patterson of the Patterson Legal Group as our guest speaker to talk to us about accidents and litigation. And last, but not least, it’s also Common Courtesy Day, need I say more?

Coffee With The Boys at Doo Dah Diner, 206 E. Kellogg CANCELLED
2020-03-24 10:00 - 11:00
No reservations, but call ahead seating is allowed. It’s Chocolate Covered Raisins Day and we may celebrate that if we go to a movie. But, let’s go and see what Doo Dah has done to their downtown location. It’s supposed to be bigger and have more parking, we’ll find out. You can see the menu (sans prices) here: www.doodahdiner.com/menu.

Senior Wednesday at Exploration Place, 300 N. McLean Blvd.CANCELLED
2020-03-25 13:30 - 15:00
Our Native Resources. A screening of Great Bear Rainforest (www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-QSLU200&feature=emb_logo) in the Digital Dome Theater with a talk from Mid-America All Indian Center about guarding our local resources. $4 admission plus tax.

Pitch Night at Tracy's CANCELLED
2020-03-25 19:00 - 22:00
It may be Tolkein Reading Day, but put down your hobbit book and come and play (cards) with us. And since it’s also
Pecan Day and Waffle Day, that should give you ideas of what to bring to our favorite snacks and beverages bar.

Dining OUT at Savute's Italian Ristorante, 3303 N. Broadway CANCELLED
2020-03-26 18:30 - 20:00
Reserved. Since it’s Make Up Your Own Holiday Day, I vote for Italian Food Day which was actually February 13th, but we’re celebrating it here at Savute’s anyway. Savute’s is a favorite iconic family owned restaurant and popular with our group. If you haven’t tried their steaks, try the Short Cut of T-Bone, my favorite.

Boys Night OUT at XY Bar, 235 N. Mosley CANCELLED
2020-03-27 19:00 - 22:00
It’s Quirky Country Music Song Titles Day (i.e. I Still Miss You Baby, But My Aim’s Getting Better). However, here’s a cutie from today’s modern music to get you into the mood, Mister Chase Heart To Break (Sign Language Cover): www.youtube.
com/watch?time_continue=2&v=fY7yOliOM7M&feature=emb_logo.

Pitch Night at Mike & Joe's
2020-06-03 19:00 - 22:00
Don’t make me repeat this, even though it is Repeat Day. After you finish riding your bike for World Bicycle Day, and running your marathon for Running Day, join us for a fun game of cards. Don’t forget your insect repellent as it is Insect Repellent Day. Moreover, if you wondering what to bring to add to our favorite snacks and beverages bar, it’s also Chocolate
Macaroon Day, just sayin’.

Celebrations Country Cafe, 2804 S. Seneca
2020-06-04 18:30 - 20:00 | Country Cafe, 2804 S Seneca St., Wichita, KS, 67217, United States
Just because It’s Old Maid’s Day, instead of celebrating Cognac Day just a little too much, and playing with your pussy on
Hug Your Cat Day, join us in celebrating June Birthday Boys and Anniversary Couples. And while we’re at it, let’s catch up with our missed April and May Birthday Boys and Anniversary Couples as well!

Breakfast Boys Club at Village Inn, 7020 W. Central
2020-06-06 09:00 - 10:00 | Village Inn, 7020 W Central, Wichita, KS, KS, United States
Before you get started gardening on Gardening Exercise Day or hit the dusty trails for Trails Day, start the day with a good hot breakfast. VI doesn’t take reservations, so whoever gets there first, ask for a table for eight.

Bowling at Seneca Bowl, 1909 S. Seneca
2020-06-06 15:00 - 17:00 | Seneca Bowl, 1909 S. Seneca, Wichita
I was told that there should be no problem with getting a lane for open bowling. So, leave your man cave on Caves and Karst Day, and your yo-yo as it’s Yo-Yo Day, then join us for bowling, either as a bowler or a spectator. We’ll probably go somewhere to eat afterwards. And who knows what we’ll do after that as it is Drive In Movie Day (hint, hint).

Coffee With The Boys at Denny's 4024 E. Harry
2020-06-09 10:00 - 11:00
Denny’s doesn’t take reservations either, but have dine in capability. So, whoever gets there first, get a table for eight.
National 69 or Sex Day. There seems to be some international debate as to whether this is the actual date to celebrate. Americans write the date as the sixth month, ninth day. However, on the continent, they write the day as the sixth day of the ninth month, so I guess that they celebrate on September 6th. June 9th is also National Donald Duck Day so whatever you do to celebrate this day, celebrate it with a Donald Duck impression.

Lunch With The Boys at Sims Park, 2020 W. Murdock
2020-06-12 11:30 - 13:00
This is a repeat of last month’s successful new event. It’s BYOL (Bring Your Own Lunch). Stop at some fast food place or pack your own sandwich or whatever in a picnic basket and bring it to the park. Don’t know what to pack for lunch, remember it’s International Falafel Day and Peanut Butter Cookie Day. We’ll meet, like before, at (what I call the Shelterhouse, they call it) the Gazebo, the building with the locked bathrooms (so plan accordingly). If the Gazebo is occupied, we can try the horseshoe table next to it. So if pair Flip Flop Day and Loving Day on the same date, does that make it Loving Flip Flop Day?
In honor of Superman Day, here’s a favorite of mine, Sunshine Superman by Donovan: www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsX2FhBf9nY. And in honor of Red Rose Day, here is Bette Midler singing The Rose, fromthe 1979 movie of the same name: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxvPjuREDpE.

Flag Day
2020-06-14

Board Meeting at Riverside Cafe, 739 W. 13th St. N.
2020-06-15 18:30 - 20:00
They should really call it, World Elder Abuse( Attention or Prevention) Day, otherwise it’s very misleading.
I’m still making amends from since last year. However, we’re going to be celebrating Lobster Day (sans lobster) at Riverside Cafe. We’ll be discussing future events, like plans for a low key anniversary celebration. It’s also Nature Photography Day and Smile Power Day. So, if Lewis is there, act natural; and regardless of whether he’s there, show us the
power of your SMILE!

Pitch Night at Tracy's
2020-06-17 19:00 - 22:00
I think it was a poor choice to pair Eat Your Vegetables Day with Garbage Man Day. Regardless, why not join your friends in a little game of cards. And if you’re wondering what to bring to our favorite snacks and beverages bar, remember, it’s also Cherry Tart Day and Apple Strudel Day.

Summer Solstice
2020-06-20

Potluck/Business Meeting at Mike & Joe's
2020-06-20 18:30 - 20:00
Since I was unable to find a venue to have our potluck due to crowd restrictions, Mike & Joe agreed to host at
their home. We’ll enjoy their patio on the longest day of the year. Tyler Patterson of Patterson Legal Group will be our speaker. The grill will be available, so bring whatever you want to have grilled, and bring a side dish to share. Since it’s Ice Cream Soda Day and Vanilla Milkshake Day, for dessert we’ll have an Ice Cream Dessert Bar. So, bring your favorite flavors or additions to share. Perhaps afterwards, we can go walking in the park since it will be light out longer.
In honor of Surf Day, here are some surf scenes from Darren & Adrian // Bi􀆩 er End: www.youtube.

Dining OUT at El Mexico Cafe, 2544 S. Seneca
2020-06-25 18:30 - 20:00
With everything going on today, ie. Bomb Pop Day, Global Beatles Day, Goats Cheese Day, Strawberry Parfait Day, Color TV Day, and Catfish Day, we’re going out for Mexican food. El Mexico is one of our favorite restaurants, and the first
to agree to seat a large group.

Pitch Night at Mike & Joe's
2020-07-01 19:00 - 22:00
It’s no joke, although it is Joke Day, we’ll be playing cards at Mike & Joe’s.
And on this Second Half of The Year Day, if you’re wondering what to bring to add to our favorite snacks and beverages
bar, remember it’s also Gingersnap Day and Wild Ice Cream Flavor Day. Lastly, for Canada Day we want to give a shout out to all of our brothers north of the border.
