The brainchild of an unemployed architect, the game was developed during the Great Depression and first called "Criss-Cross Words."
Are you a Scrabble fan? Does the idea of getting together with a collegial group of like-minded wordsmiths at the EFA offices once a month sound like a good break in your routine?
You're at the right place to remind yourself of when the next gathering will be held.
The EFA now shares its conference room with another organization, which means there are more rules. One of us must be there at 5:00, and if we move anything we must put it back exactly where it was. I would appreciate any volunteers to cover this duty in the future. For more information, contact Laurie Lewis.
