How to Host a Euchre Party

Plan on 12 total people to play in the euchre party. They must all be present for this type of tournament to work.
Set up the card tables and chairs so there is enough room for everyone to sit comfortably. Place a deck of euchre cards on each table.
Hand everyone a scoring notepad once they pay their fee to play, if you are playing for money and not just bragging rights. A typical euchre party buy-in is $10 per person. This is the money that will be used for prize money. It equals $120 and you can divide that up into prizes however you see fit. Usually that is $70 for first place, $30 for second and $20 for third.
Explain that you will be following the regular euchre rules of play, with one exception. Each table will have total of 12 rounds dealt, with each player dealing three times. At the end of the 12 rounds, each player will record his score -- how many tricks his team has taken -- on the notepad.
At the end of the first game, have your guests switch partners with the people at their table. Play again as stated, recording the scores as before. Continue to play, record and switch until every player has been a partner with every attendee. Have each player then add his or her scores up on the notepad and determine a first, second and third place winner.

How to Play Pokeno

Decide whether you are playing standard Pokeno, where a player wins with is five cards in a row either horizontally, vertically or diagonally, or if you are going to play a variation like four corners or full card.
Hand out Pokeno game boards to everyone who wants to play the game. Give each of the players 20 poker chips.
Shuffle a deck of cards and lay it face down on the table. Pick one card at a time and call out the card name and the suit.
Instruct the players to place a chip over the card value that you just called out if they have it on their board.
Continue calling cards until one of the players has five in a row vertically, horizontally or diagonally. The player may also have the four outside corners or a full card if you are playing one of those variations. When the player gets what he needs to win on his card he calls out Pokeno.
Switch places with the winner of the last hand. Now you are playing to win and the winner is the dealer.

How to Organize a Home Business Expo (6 Steps)

Your very first step is to decide on the place you will hold the event in. To do this you'll need to be able to hold about 15 vendors and tables of at least 6 ft long. Consider your other factors- are you offering refreshments? Will you need a rest room? How long is the event?
Start contacting your vendors next. Go directly to a local rep and let them know you are showcasing home businesses that moms can do in the area and want them to be included. Hand out a form with all the information available about the event specifics including the vendors cost and what is being supplied in return.
Begin your advertising. Write your own press release if you can or call the paper and tell them what your doing. Make flyers and pass them around town. Consider giving them out at PTA events and other places that cater to women and mothers. Inform local radio and television stations.
Collect the payments paid by the vendors who sign up and keep a ledger of who has paid. Detail all of your expenses for room rental, advertising, food etc and pay yourself back as your payments come in. Always keep in mind that you may need cash for something unexpected.
Hang out your sign and have your business expo. You can enjoy meeting the women business owners in your own back yard and know that you've opened the door to new home businesses to your communities women.
Follow up your job fair by sending thank you cards and questionnaires. File everything away in a file for next year!
