    Backgammon

    Come by next Monday night and find out. I have heard of the Middle Eastern variation. We play the modern game which utilizes a doubling cube. Give it a try, you ought to like it.

    Hi Ray,

    Show up when you can. If it is not at the beginning, that is not a problem. Send me your email address by private message and I'll put you on our event list for future reference.

    Cheers!
