HALLOWEEN MAHJONGG TOURNAMENT By Jane Shaeffer
October 31st saw Del Tura’s very first Halloween Mahjongg Tournament. Twelve dedicated American Mahjongg players from our very own Del Tura residents played for five hours (with lunch break, of course) and with the help of Dots & Craks & Bams & Dragons we had four big winners. Top prize was a tie between Linda Laird and Marie Nolan for their strategic planning. Second place was won by Kathy Zitani. We had 2 players who had hands that were Jokerless. In the Morning session Sherry Cottini had the first one of the day. In the afternoon session Marie Nolan had a Jokerless hand.
And because it was Halloween we had some who wore appropriate attire so we gave a winning basket of goodies to Pat McTamney. Other players in attendance who gave our winners great competition were: Marcella Carothers, Sandy Gower, Denise Palazzo, Kathryn Page, Connie Larson, Donna Thake & Donna Rojotte. I want to thank my team of helpers who made the day enjoyable: Judy Brown, Joyce Frase and Liz Poniatowski. We invite anyone in the community who would like to learn the game to join us on Tuesdays at 12:45 in the Poinciana Room at the clubhouse.
