What we’re about
Are you a `nice person`and South Asian? Would you like to meet people who love to play Scrabble in a fun environment? If you have a love of words and other Classic Board, Word and/or Card games, then this group is for you..
We will try to meet on a MONTHLY basis to play SCRABBLE.
Sometimes, during a month, we may hold other Classic Board Game events (e.g. Monopoly, Clue, Trivial pursuit), Game Show Fun (Family Feud, Wheel of Fortune, Millionaire, Weakest Link, Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?),Word (e.g. Charades, Boggle) or even Card Playing events (e.g. Sath Hath, Kali Ki Rani, etc..).
We regularly meet at a Bistro now..No need for potluck snacks. Only Non-alcoholic beverages please. Please join us and let your friends know too..the more the merrier..!!!
Do bring your favourite Scrabble Board with you..We will have a couple of boards on hand, and a couple of Official Scrabble Player Dictionaries (OSPD) (4th Edition)..too!
Games will use a `Scrabble Score Sheet`, and game play will be friendly and fun..(with more time available to players per round -- instead of the traditional 2 minutes..players can have 5 minutes, as needed). Good sportsmanship is essential. Remember it is only a game and the event is to enable you to have fun, meet new people, dine, listen to great music and be relaxed.
Events will be limited in size to enable everyone to really get to know one another..(On Average 4-6, max 8)
Look forward to meeting you all!!
p.s. Based on interest, we might occasionally have social event meetups too (e.g. movie, concert, show, tea/coffee, brunch, lunch etc..)
p.p.s. Please note this group is NOT for "strategy game " enthusiasts, but rather for those who have always enjoyed the "traditional/classic board games" we all know and love..!!!!
p.p.p.s. We are a bunch of "teetotalers"..lol (check out the meaning, Scrabble lovers!)
If you are a mid-level Gen X-er or mid-level Baby Boomer please join us..and let your "inner joy" out! :-)
Please know I check this site only close to the date of an event..as I manage some other groups too...Cheers! (usually check close to an event)
