We will enjoy a lunch influenced by French
and Asian cuisines at Wicked Wines (www.
wickedwines.nl). As the name already
reveals, the restaurant serves “wicked”
wines, chosen with passion and care, many
of which are served by the glass. From
March until October there is a beautiful terrace
at the renowned Anna Pauwlonaplein.
We can see this sculpture of Anna sitting
on a couch made by the Russian artist
Alexander Taratynov. If you have any questions,
please contact Greetje Engelsman at
outtolunchbunch@awcthehague.org.

Pickleball
Pickleball is a sport that combines elements
from tennis, badminton and table tennis. It
is played with a paddle and light ball in a
badminton-sized court. It is a friendly sport
for all age groups and levels! Pickleball is
the fastest growing sport in the US and is
exploding in popularity internationally.
The AWC now meets weekly with AWC
Member Krishna Thakrar guiding us on
how to play. Contact Barbara Brookman
at activites@awcthehague.org to join a trial
session with the option to join for the season.
Every Wednesday
10 – 11:30 a.m.

Laan van Poot 22, Den Haag
Trial Session: € 10 Members / € 15 nonmembers
Saturday Night Out at the
Club
The latest addition to our Ongoing Activities
will be a monthly Saturday Night Out at the
Club in which we’ll host a variety of social
events at the AWC Clubhouse.
Game Night: Beyond Balderdash
Balderdash is based on bluffing your opponents
into guessing your false definitions to
obscure words. Beyond Balderdash adds
several new categories to the mix: Movies
(make up a plot), Dates (say what happened
on it), People (say what the person did), and
Initials (make up what they stand for). The
real answers are often even more outrageous
than the bluffs, so the game offers plenty of
laughs.
Date and time TBD
AWC Clubhouse
€ 5 Members / € 10 non-members
Minimum 8 / Maximum 36

Cancellation deadline: April 1

month’s deal: the Sicilian owner of this
adorable cafe has agreed to open his doors
in the evening especially for the AWC. He
will be providing us with two drinks (alcoholic

such as cheeses, homemade breads,
and meats. All for the low price of €15.
