Come join our Tuesday evening supervised play at Soul Sanctuary. This year supervised play will be run by Gary Parker. This is a wonderful opportunity for beginning players to play for a couple of hours with supervision by more advanced players. Entry is $5, and includes a lesson, handouts, and a game. It’s a relaxed atmosphere where you can ask questions, have fun, and improve your play. There is no requirement to attend every Tuesday - just come whenever you can. You are welcome to come with or without a partner.

In order that we can have a 7 pm start, please arrive by 6:45 so that folks can sign in and get a name tag. 

If you know you are coming, please respond at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so that we can set up the appropriate number of tables and be sure to have sufficient volunteers available.

Looking forward to seeing you on the 3rd!

Just a reminder regarding director calls at our games... when you request that a director come to your table, regardless of how you may be feeling at the time, please do not shout out in an annoyed tone "DIRECTOR!". Instead, simply raise your hand and say in a clear, calm voice, "Director, please". Keep in mind that our directors work very hard before, during, and after each game, and we could not run our games or tournaments without them. They deserve our respect and appreciation.
