Program Description

Description

Think Mah Jong isn't for you? Think again!

Learn to play the traditional oriental game of Mah Jong. This gin-rummy-like strategy game of making 3-4 tile combinations or melds was started in China by men and is known to enhance cognitive skills and improve memory and concentration. It is now played with many different versions primarily in the Pacific Rim. Unlike the American version,  it does not require an annual subscription book which has its own game conventions.

For each of the four Monday evenings, lessons are being offered to 4 beginners from 5:30 to 7:30pm. Please register for one session only.

The hope is to start a core group of 16 members and form a "MAN-JONG Club" that would play on a regular basis.

Registration to play is required, but drop-in observers are always welcome!
