Women's Backgammon Club
If you love backgammon, and well, who doesn't, this is the group for you. (Note:
apparently my clip art program does not like backgammon, since they had no picture, but
perhaps I digress....) Although they have only been meeting for a couple of weeks, they
alreaady have eight regulars. The gals are aspiring to grow their group so that they can
have tournaments and do fund-raising events. The group meets on Sunday afternoons
and you can e-mail Emily for more details and times.
