Description

Game Day with Ruth Weiner

The Mahjong Mavens of Boca Raton

Wednesday, November 8th at 1pm (Pre Lunch and Play Option at 10am)

Edison Gymnasium, Lower Fitness Entrance, The J Creve Coeur 

Back by popular demand! Partake in a relaxing day with your friends and favorite games: mahjong, bridge, scrabble, or whatever you prefer. Enjoy lunch, 3 hours of game time, and gather to hear Ruth Weiner discuss her book, The Mahjong Mavens of Boca Raton where four misfits at the Boca Raton Senior Center are thrown together because no one else will play mahjong with them. A fragile friendship is quickly forged, and Jayne, a beautiful younger woman joins them unexpectedly. The women vie for her attention, but Jayne has a secret. When Jayne’s motives are revealed, will the outliers rise above their individual differences and accept each other, warts and all?

For lunch, reservations are required by October 30 to 314.442.3299 for tables of four, including All-Access Pass holders. One person from the group should make the reservation and provide the players’ names and lunch choices: cobb salad, tuna, or turkey.
