Reach Out, a Shippensburg University honors service group, hosted a Dominican game night on Tuesday, Feb. 24. The night was full of laughter, Dominican music, dominoes and UNO.
Everyone who has played UNO should be familiar with the rules of the party card game and how things can get wild with a drop of a card.
In addition to the regular rules of UNO, there are three new rules; stacking numbered cards, stacking draw cards and special action cards. The rules were explained to the students who attended the event via handout that was distributed by Tori Walls, cultural committee member of Reach Out.
Nikki Miller, public relations for Reach Out, described Dominican game night as “a way for students to wind down and learn to play Dominican games.”
Reach Out’s group page on SU’s website says, “Our mission is to support both domestic and international educational programs through establishing local partnerships while emphasizing cultural understanding.”
Once a year, 12 members of Reach Out travel to Dominican Republic to help improve the quality of education.
