NEW EVENT: PO-KE-NO & PIZZA
Sunday, February 15, 2026, 3:00 pm, Keller Williams Realty Office,
1483 Beaver Creek Commons Drive, Apex, NC 27502
We continue to have lots of new members to meet and familiar faces to catch up with after the holiday season. Po-Ke-No has been a popular game at Italian American family gatherings for decades. It’s just like Bingo, but you receive a board that has pictures of playing cards. Place a chip on the playing card if it is called. Of course, we will have prizes! We’ll be serving Pizza after the game to continue mingling with members. The fee to attend is $5 for Members with a paid TSDIA Membership and $8 for Guests who are not TSDIA Members. Bring a non-member friend to experience our Lodge and encourage them to join. Click on the payment links to register. The capacity limit for this event is 50.

SCOPA Night at Southern Peak Brewery
Monthly on a Thursday Night at 6:00 pm
Southern Peak Brewery, 950 Windy Rd., Suite 100, Apex, NC 27502
Scopa is an Italian card game, and one of the three major national card games in Italy. You do not need to know how to play to join us. The game is quick to learn and you will sit with others at a table who will show you the ropes. It is a very pleasant atmosphere to chat, get to know other members, and purchase a sandwich at the outside Italian Food Truck. Of course you can order your favorite beverage too at the brewery.
