Good Luck at State!

Hey LOJ!

Good luck tomorrow! Get ready for a full day of wonderful Scrabble-playing! Make sure to eat a good breakfast and try your hardest. As long as you try your best, no matter how you do tomorrow you shall remain happy.  Can't wait to see you all there!

Rose City Scrabble Club

Hello LOJ SCRABBLE club!

The State Tournament is coming up in a couple weeks, do you think you're ready?

The Rose City Scrabble Club meets on Tuesdays at the Lakewood Center at 6:45 pm, and if you're looking for some practice, this is a great idea.  The games are singular; you'll have to manage the scoring, timing, tracking, and such by yourself, but playing with pros in a tournament setting will prepare you for state.

Each Tuesday, there are four 45 minute games for $3.00, though you can pay $2.00 and only stay for two if you wish.

If you decide to go, please remember that you are representing yourself, and your school; please act respectful, appropriate, and try your best.

Good luck!
