Pitch Night at Mike & Joe’s, 921 N. Bebe
2023-03-08 19:00 - 22:00 (America/Chicago)
Be Nasty Day, so what else is new? But on World Math Day, we’re going to play cards. Playing cards is a great way to do math, well the way these guys play. And for our favorite snacks and beverages bar, remember today is also National Peanut Cluster Day!

Senior Thursday at Kansas Aviation Museum, 3350 S. George Washington Boulevard.
2023-03-09 10:00 - 12:00
KAM sent out the notice of their speaker, Vice Wing Commander, Col. Jacob Thornburg. Col. Thornburg will share about his military life. So now we can celebrate National Get Over It Day. National Meatball Day is a good enough reason to go to eat afterwards.

Lunch With The Guys at Copper Oven, 2409 E. 13th St. N.
2023-03-10 11:30 - 13:00
It’s National Pack Your Lunch Day, but why? Not when we can have a hot cooked meal at Copper Oven. So, on this International Day of Awesomeness, we’ll order off of the menu: copperovencafe.com/menu. And for dessert, try their sugar free Coconut Cake, it’s Awesome!

Bowling at West Acres Bowling Center, 749 N. Ridge Rd.
2023-03-11 15:30 - 17:30
Since Seneca Bowl will be busy with tournaments, West Acres has open bowling, and no Cosmic Bowling any more! Cost is $5.69 per person per game and $5.69 for shoes. Let’s try it and find out. Sure, National Wash Your Nose Day and World Plumbing Day sound like fun, but wouldn’t you rather go bowling? You don’t have to bowl, you can just sit and watch how we do it, and we call it bowling. Kind of like how we play volleyball in the pool, but now we try to keep the ball between the lines. And that’s not easy, you’ll see why. But afterwards, we’ll probably go somewhere to eat and forget.

Daylight Saving Begins

Board Meeting at Country Cafe, 2804 S. Seneca
2023-03-13 18:30 - 20:00
Reserved. Board meetng falls on Smart & Sexy Day. It’s also National Open An Umbrella Indoors Day, but let’s hope we don’t have to. But we will review chapter needs and activities. Come and enjoy a good hot meal and share your ideas. So, is Ken Day a celebration of the first transgender doll? Sorry Ken, a pretty face can only take you so far. That’s why I like to play with Billy Doll any day. They “ came out “ around 1996. I remember seeing them in the “ gay “ book store (not adult) in Austin when they went on sale. I definitely checked it out lol. As a kid when Ken went on sale I opened a box in the store and pulled down his pants and was Very disappointed.

Of all the holidays celebrated on this date, we going to celebrate National French Bread Day.

Pitch Night at Tracy’s, 2914 Grail.
2023-03-22 19:00 - 22:00
It’s As Young As You Feel Day. If you think you feel young, you should feel me! After all age is just a number, like your weight, height, blood pressure, A1C, cholesterol, vision, etc.. you get the picture. But on this National Goof Off Day, we’re going to play with our equally young friends. However, don’t you goof, and forget to bring something to add to our favorite snacks and beverages bar.

Bowling at West Acres Bowling Center, 749 N. Ridge Rd.
2023-03-25 15:30 - 17:30
Again, Seneca Bowl is busy with tournaments. However West Acres offers open bowling and no Cosmic Bowl any more. $5.69 per person per game and $5.69 for shoes. If there is a change, we’ll send out an email. Even though it’s International Waffle Day, we don’t have an International House of Waffles. So, we might as well as go bowling rather than play Tolkein Reading Day. Come out to bowl, or to watch. Waffle Day and Pecan Day, make a good combination, and a great suggestion for somewhere to go to eat afterwards.

Video Nite at Sparky’s, 229 Colorado Street.
2023-03-26 19:00 - 22:00
Since it’s Make Up Your Own Holiday Day, then I proclaim today as Gay Video Nite. Sparky has been busy researching videos to offer. He’s nearly wore his fingers down to the boner. Bone! Sorry. And, if you’re wondering what to bring to add to our communal concession stand, it’s National Nougat Day. And let’s not forget that it’s also National Neighbor Day.

2023-03-31 19:00 - 22:00

Bowling at Seneca Bowl, 1909 South Seneca.
2023-04-08 15:30 - 17:30
I know it’s National Zoo Lovers Day, but SCZ is not planning anything for this day, or none that I could find out. So why not come bowling? We’re returning to Seneca Bowl as the tournament is over, for now, and they have open bowling available. Yea! So join us for bowling, regardless of your skill level, or ours. Or join our every increasing fan base as our cheer leaders,regardless of your skill level, or ours. We’ll probably go somewhere to eat afterwards, but not at the zoo.

Board Meeting at Riverside Cafe, 739 W. 13th St. N.
2023-04-10 18:30 - 20:00
I don’t know if they have cinnamon crescents for National Cinnamon Crescent Day, but they do have cinnamon rolls on their
menu. We’re returning to Rvierside Cafe, just to keep you on your toes. It’s part of the Medicare Wellness test to see how well your memory is and whether you can follow directions <G>.

Potluck/Business Meeting at Wichita United Church of Christ, 5200 East 31st Street South (one block west of Oliver on 31st St. S)
2023-04-15 18:30 - 20:00
New Location! (See: www.wichitaucc.org) National That Sucks Day and National Husband Appreciation Day sound like a romantic interlude to me. Or we could celebrate Titanic Remembrance Day, get all dressed up to the nines, and serve an elegant meal, like it was our last. But I think we’ll celebrate National Glazed Ham Day and we’ll provide the ham, and you can provide the sides. Or, you can celebrate National Take A Wild Guess Day, and bring whatever you like. I’m trying to secure a guest speaker, but I’ll send out a special email for that if that occurs.

Bowling at Seneca Bowl, 1909 South Seneca.
2023-04-22 15:30 - 17:30
Can you think of a better way to recycle and reuse bowling pins and balls on Earth Day than through bowling? Didn’t think so. Come out and show your concern for the environment and have a good time doing it either as a bowler or as a spectator. We’ll probably go somewhere to eat afterwards, but not reused or recycled.

Coffee With The Guys at Home Grown, 1900 N. Rock Road, #108.
2023-04-25 09:00 - 10:00
I would have sworn that Home Grown, if anyone would be celebrating National Zucchini Bread Day. But I guess it’s too early in the season for it yet. But you can find better things on their menu at: homegrownkitchen.com/homegrown-wichita-menu. They don’t take reservations so whoever gets there first, ask for a table for eight.
