For the second week in a row, Linda Bredel turned in a scorecard with 100% wins and is again the top player of the session. Again, Ed Saunders was Bingo King, playing a lighter than usual 6 bingos in 5 games.  The "High Five" contest for the highest-scoring play made with five tiles goes to Karen Lundeen for an impressive 72-point play of QUASI. The "TRI Contest" for the highest-scoring word beginning with TRI was won by Rex Kremer with his play TRIAL, an otherwise unremarkable 21-point play that was the evening's only noted play that began with this very common prefix. Both these contests win $4.00 prizes. Remember, if you have a play that qualifies for one of the evening's contests, please remember to write it down. Even if it is small, it just might win.  

Despite not scoring in it for a second week in a row, Ed Saunders remains in first place for The Alphabet Bingo contest. This session featured the letter G, and only Linda Bredel and Josh Kassel scored bingos that began with it (GLADIER and GRADERS, respectively). For Alphabet Bingo rules and details, click here. The 9+ Bingo Jackpot (for a bingo of nine or more letters) and the Triple-Triple Jackpot remain unclaimed, and we added $2.25 to each.

Next Session (26 June) will feature the following contests:
- Low Win - A prize will be awarded for the lowest winning score in a game.  (~a quarter of dues collected)
- Fire Contest - A prize will be awarded to the highest-scoring play that contains a word that relates to the spate of wildfires that are turning Southern Arizona into a desolate wasteland (e.g., FLAME, BLAZE, SEARING, etc.). Be creative! If you can justify a word as relating to the wildfires (e.g., "The firefighter BATTLES the fires...", "The fires were helped by DROUGHT and WINDIER than usual conditions..."), we'll accept it as an entry (~a quarter of dues collected).
- Triple-Triple Jackpot - A jackpot of $24.25 plus an eighth of the evening's dues will be awarded to any player(s) who scores a Triple-Triple Play.
- 9+ Bingo Jackpot - A jackpot of $31.25 plus an eighth of the evening's dues will be awarded to any player(s) who scores a bingo containing nine or more letters.
- Alphabet Bingo - The Alphabet Bingo letter for this session is "H." For each bingo you play that begins with the letter H, you score one point. Click here for more information about Alphabet Bingo. ($26 Jackpot)
