SPREAD THE WORD
Join us for SCRABBLE Fest 2010


Literacy Volunteers is hosting
fifth annual SCRABBLE Fest Event


Plan a Game Night this winter with your friends & family – all for a good cause!

Tile bags will be shaking all through Western New York during February as friends of Literacy Volunteers participate in the third annual Scrabble Fest Tournament. It’s easy to join in the fun. You can either host a party at your house, or find a party near you to attend.

Here's How It Works:
After you decide to become a SCRABBLE Fest party host, you work with Literacy Volunteers to determine a date and an entry fee. We provide you with a host packet containing postcard invitations that can be mailed to your guests.


- Parties can be held anytime from now through March 1, 2010.
- Party styles can be anything from dinner events to chips and drinks.
- Hosts invite as many people as they are able to accommodate.
- Each party will determine one winner who will be invited to participate in one final
SCRABBLE Party on March 7, 2010.
