TOURNAMENT FOR A GOOD CAUSE

Today was the Third Annual Mah Jongg Lunch and Tournament to benefit Corinne Goldsmith Dickinson MS Center at Icahn School of Medicine at Mt. Sinai Hospital , held at the Yale Club. I have attended this tournament all three years but today was the first time that I did not play in the tournament because…I was a vendor selling my new book, Mah Jongg: The Art of the Game!

First there was lunch, starting with a Caesar Salad followed by a mushroom ravioli main course. But the best part was the dessert table:

YUM!! And, of course, there were lots of beverages:

There was a nice turn-out today…and all for a very good cause.

There were also several tables laden with all kinds of gifts, jewelry, scarves, purses, etc:

    I would also love to be put on the list for future events. Are they always at the same venue?

    I’m a new follower (and player) and am loving both the game and your blog. Best of luck with the book.

      Hi Karen – thanks for this lovely message. I will send your name and address over to the Center right now. The event has been at the Yale Club for the past three years and I am guessing it will stay there. Glad you are loving our favorite game (and my blog!).

    Hi Ann, Perhaps you have already done this but – can you give us a short description of Mah Jongg, The Art of the Game?

    Thank you so much,
    Carol
