Sunday, April 18, 2010, “Letters for Literacy” Scrabble Fest, was held at the Fireside Inn in Auburn.
Area Scrabble fans helped raise money for Literacy Volunteers by playing their favorite board game — but with an unusual twist. In this version the competition features teams of four collaborating over the same letter tray to try and out-score another four-person team. An array of prizes, including original artwork, was awarded to the top fund-raisers and everyone enjoyed an afternoon of good-natured Scrabble competition.
