15th Anniversary of Millburn Scrabble Club #411
The Club celebrated our
15th anniversary with a party at the Millburn Library on Oct 15,
2006. Every member present received a certificate listing number of wins,
bingos, bingo points, total points, 100 point words and 500 point games
attained while they were at the Club. Every one who had a 100 point word was
given a 100 point medallion and every member was given a pin commemorating the
various win levels attained, each win level with a different color pin. Pins were given for 50, 300, 750, and
1500 wins and everyone that reached one of these levels received at least one
pin. (Since we had not done this before, for example if you had 750 wins you
received a pin for 50, 300, and 750 wins.
We also handed out awards
for the following:
High Game 621
Director Don Carson
Most Wins 1845 Don
Carson
High Word we gave 2 since
we had not given out awards before, so because Ruth Dunkle had held the high
word record (TACKLERS 185 points) for 5 years we gave her an award
and gave one to Seth Mandel for recently surpassing that record with
CAPTIVES 194 points. (Don Carson tied Seth just a few months later.)
We had a good time of
fellowship, food and seeing people who participated after not joining us in a
while. Then we went to play our favorite game: Scrabble!
