Join the National Council of Jewish Women (NCJW) for Mahjong Night, an evening of laughter, good company and a little friendly competition. This event is being generously hosted by Sherry Rowen and Cindy Gershen on Monday, Oct. 12 from 6 to 9 p.m. in the Oak Room at Gateway.

The cost for this exciting evening is $36, and the proceeds from this event will be used by the local NCJW charities that support women and children in need. This evening, the proceeds will be donated to East Bay Health, a nonprofit membership clinic that provides compassionate, whole person primary care to patients of all socioeconomic status. The medical support to families includes education about healthy eating, and encourages children to eat healthy meals with their own cooking classes taught by Cindy Gershen.

Delicious light bites will be served all night, so come pull up a chair and join the fun. Participants can also expect some fun prizes.

Mahjong is the perfect way to relax, connect with friends, and meet new people. Enjoy an evening filled with strategy and laughter. Residents can arrange for their own table of four, or come on their own and make new friends. Don’t forget to bring your own Mahjong set. The tables will be ready and good vibes waiting.

Come for the game and stay for the company.

To reserve a spot, send $36 (check payable to NCJW) with your name, phone number and whether you are a Rossmoor resident to Sandy Belden, 3747 Terra Granada Dr., Unit 2B, Walnut Creek, CA 94595 or place in the NCJW mailbox at Gateway.
