The winner at each table not only wins the game, but keeps the game. Our exclusive game has teams scrambling to make high-scoring words with giant tiles picked by team captains. The Elegant Word Jeffrey McQuain , author and word columnist, explores elegance in language, from Shakespeare's coinages to homegrown Americanisms. First sit and solve, then flit and find. That's what you will do during this Special Scavenger Hunt within the Mountain House as you and your teammates vie to be first in with most finds.
Winners win praise and prizes.
