In her latest episode of “Stuck in Vermont,” Seven Days senior multimedia producer Eva Sollberger visited OZ for a Wednesday morning drop-in game and met Lynda Siegel and some of the other players. Siegel’s mah-jongg classes start up again in March; you can sign up on the OZ website.

When Lynda Siegel was growing up, her Jewish mother and aunts played a tile-based game called Mah-Jongg. The game originated in China in the 19th century and made its way to the West in the 1920s. Siegel learned to play the game in 2001 and found it a relaxing alternative to her work as a schoolteacher.
