Some years ago, I went to a Scrabble fundraiser that was sponsored by the Literacy Volunteers of the Montachusett Area. It was a fun gig, and that's how I met my current pack of Scrabble friends. This year, we learned that the Literacy Volunteers weren't going to do the fundraiser anymore— too much work, and not enough money raised. I was bummed, because I liked the location (Monument Grill in Leominster) and they always had good door prizes and raffles.
Just today, I saw a poster for the Literacy Volunteers of Greater Worcester. Their 4th Annual Team Scrabble Tournament will be held on Wednesday April 26th, from 6-9 pm, at the Hagan Center at Assumption College. Registration fee is $25 per person or $100 per team (up to 8 players).
Deadline for entry is April 22, 2006.
