Scrabble Rousers! July 14, 2009

Calling all Word Nerds and Scrabble Sharks! Get thee ready for a special Bastille Day edition of Scrabble Rousers!, a competition suitable for all levels. Participants establish their own skill level: beginner, intermediate, or expert. People are paired off to battle it out in two successive, exceedingly fun games. Between these and at the start, other games are engaged to hone your word prowess. Entrance fee is $10 per participant and all proceeds directly benefit the Tacoma Community House Student Scholarship Fund, which assists students as they transfer from TCH to community college. Tacoma Community House is an 100 year old nonprofit that provides a variety of services to the community, including adult education, bilingual job assistance, and youth programming. The MC for the night is King's Books own sweet pea.
