I grew up hearing “One bam! Three crack! Soap!” and listening to the click of the tiles. Did you? Whether the answer is yes or no, join us for a weekly Mah Jongg game on Friday mornings from 10 to noon at Congregation Beth Evergreen. We have a friendly game that’s fun and enjoyable! All levels of players are welcome.
The game is played with a set of 144 tiles based on Chinese characters and symbols. In most variations, each player begins by receiving 13 tiles. In turn players draw and discard tiles until they complete a legal hand. In North America, legal hands are created annually by the National Mah Jongg League. Cards are available annually for $9 for large print card, $8 for smaller card.
ALL ARE WELCOME! The leader has been playing Mah Jongg for about 5 years and is happy to both teach the game to new players and coordinate a weekly game for veteran players. Please contact me if you have an interest in joining the group.
