Admission is free, although we do ask that you patronize the venue. Pure Soul has won Yelp's 2023 Best Restaurant of the Carolinas, and is #8 on Yelp's Top 100 Vegan Restaurants in the US!
Games at this club will be one-on-one, with clocks and scoresheets (provided). Players are expected to know the basic rules of Scrabble before attending. The lexicon is NWL23. Cheat sheets will be provided to new players, and we'll be happy to guide you through the first few sessions to help you progress through your Scrabble journey.
There are two other Scrabble clubs in the region featuring more casual play. Our sister club, the Triangle Scrabble Club, is also NASPA-sanctioned, and meets at Greek Fiesta in Brier Creek, Raleigh, on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month.
Also, the Cary Scrabble Meetup features four-player games in a very casual setting. Fees are a dollar per game.
For any questions, please contact Club Director Lisa Perry @ perrylisa302 at gmail.com. Thanks, and hope to see you soon!
