ATTENTION: Scrabble Enthusiasts & even ADDICTS (like meeh)

 

 

This morning, I got an email from the President of the Baguio/Benguet Club for Scrabble (BBCS)and here's the transcript:

We are happy to announce that the preparations for the "2007 Baguio Flowerfest Scrabble Tournament" are well underway. Sponsors have been contacted, the venue is secure and cocktails are being prepared! The event will be held at the Baguio Country Club as before and will be on Saturday February 24 and Sunday 25. The tournament is open and will feature straight KotH, with first prize of 15,000 pesos. The 2nd to 5th finishers will receive 10,000 5,000 3,000 2,000 respectively. The highest new comer, best local player and highest student player will receive P 2,000.00. A bonus of 500 pesos will be given to the player with the most "flowery" word. (remember that our rule is that no player wins more than one prize, raffle excluded!) We are still working on additional bonuses and prizes but that will be a surprise.

 

The tournament will end on Sunday (9 games on Saturday, and 7 on Sunday) around 6 pm with the awarding ceremony and cocktails, courtesy of the Country Club! Registration fee is P 500.00. Please bring your boards and clocks, just in case! Registration is at 8 a.m. on Saturday, games start at 9 sharp. Two forfeits are allowed if you intend to be late. Please invite those you know and have no email access! See you in February and regards! (HL/BBCS President, Tournament Director)
