Do you petanque?

French teacher Sarah Wadsworth and about 25 Petaluma High School French students got a lesson in the classic French game (think of something akin to bocce) from the Petaluma Valley Petanque Club. The lesson was given in French in Oak Hill Park Friday afternoon.

Club members Sabine and Roger Mattei, Frank Pipal and Christine Lemore Drake gave game instructions in French.

Earlier this month, the club hosted a lesson on the rules of the game in English for neighborhood residents, according to the club.

Interested in learning the game or practicing your French? The club will hold  “Potluck in the Park” on May 21. The club plays every Saturday at Oak Hill Park, 411 Howard St.
