Philly Plays Scrabble Begins!

Philly Plays Scrabble kicked off this morning when Philadelphia Deputy Police Commissioner Charlotte Council and Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers squared off for a friendly game of Scrabble in Parkway Central. Local students chimed in with strategies and help, and in the end Deputy Commissioner Council won.

Join us for a month-long tournament of Scrabble at various branches throughout the city. Find all scrabble events in our calendar.

Nice article from Philly.com about the kick off tournament. http://www.philly.com/philly/news/local/20091002_Top_officials_set_Scrabble_tourney_example.html Apparently in Scrabble, Harry Potter words like AUROR count!
