July 4 Club Session; July and August LCT's

We were unsure about whether to have a club session on Sunday, July 4, but several of you expressed a desire to play (we Scrabblers are enthusiastic about playing!), so club will be held, although neither John nor Steve will be there. (You can give John a call at home if you have a director's call to be decided.) Here are those who have responded that they will be there --

Our first two local club tournaments in 2010 were very well received, and we have decided to try to hold an LCT once a month. Dates for the next two LCT's will be Sunday, July 18 (John directing), and Sunday, August 22 (Steve directing). We'll do the attendance survey on the August tourney closer to that event, but here is the information for the July LCT --

We had ten playing at the June LCT; it would be great to have that many or more at the one this month.

Have a great Independence Day!

Please sign me up for the July 18 tournament.

I have really enjoyed the first two!

I just got a new CNA job. I'll find out my schedule on the 8th, so the LCT is 50/50 until then, because I was told I'd be off every other weekend, so I don't know how they'll start me... I'll let you know

I have to work that weekend, so I'm out.
