Pétanque is a “boules” sport in the same family as bocce, curling, shuffleboard, and horseshoes. The object of the game is to score points by getting your boule closer to the target than your opponent. Bring the family and learn to play with us! We will have an area to ourselves at the Carreau Club, owned and operated by Aaron Weeks ’03.
