Temple Sisterhood will again be sponsoring Northeast Florida’s only Mah Jongg tournament on Sunday, November 4. The tournament is open to anyone who plays with a National Mah Jongg League 2018 card for winning hands. Those who play the Chinese version would find it very different and unable to play without one.

With well over 100 players, local participants are joined by others from as far away as Savannah to our north and Orlando to our south. Registration will begin at 11 a.m., followed by lunch.  Tournament will begin at 12:30 p.m. and consist of 3 rounds of 4 games. Prizes and awards will be presented at the conclusion along with numerous door prizes.

The cost of the tournament is $30 and it will take place at Congregation Ahavath Chesed (The Temple) at 8727 San Jose Blvd. in Mandarin, which is just north of Baymeadows. Registration forms may be obtained by calling The Temple at (904) 733-7078 or going to the web site www.thetemplejacksonville.org .

The deadline for registration is October 21. You do not need to be an expert to enjoy an afternoon with other Mah Jongg players.
