Our Mission
To provide a fun venue for people of all ages and abilities to meet, play and learn Scrabble and above all enjoy themselves.
Our History
The founding members, Siobhan Doyle, Ann Doyle-Kelly, John Ryan & Aileesh Harpur set up the Menapia Scrabble Club, near the end of 2003. We have now been going strong for 6 years.
Structure
The club does not have a normal structure of treasurer/secretary/chair etc as we decided this would get in the way of enjoying Scrabble. Instead we have an informal gathering of like-minded people getting together and enjoying themselves. As the saying goes, there are no strangers in our club, just friends you have yet to meet
Wexford Town Branch
We started off with one meeting per week, Thursday evenings, in the Westgate Tavern at the time, who allowed the use of there facilited for free, therefore our club could operate with no costs, subscriptions or dues to the members. We have subsequently moved to the Gaelic Bar on the Distillery Road.
