🃏 Get Ready for the 2026 NextGen Euchre Tournament! 🃏

Think you’ve got what it takes to call trump and take tricks like a pro? Join us for the 2026 NextGen Euchre Tournament—where strategy, teamwork, and a little bit of luck come together for an unforgettable time!

🎉 Whether you're a seasoned player or just love a good game night, this is your chance to connect, compete, and have fun with fellow Euchre enthusiasts.

👉 Register now: https://www.michagent.org/events2/big-i-michigan-events/2026nextgeneuchre

💡 Did you know? Euchre is one of the few card games where the Jack of the trump suit (the “Right Bower”) is the highest card, even outranking the Ace—and the Jack of the same-color suit (the “Left Bower”) becomes the second highest. It’s a twist that makes the game uniquely strategic!

Grab your partner, sharpen your skills, and we’ll see you at the table! ♠️♥️♣️♦️

Join us for an evening of cards, casual competition, appetizers, drinks, and great company with fellow NextGen professionals.
