2 0 1 3 R O S E A W A R D W I N N E R2013 Rose Award Winner: Conchita DeprosoBy Ginger White; photo courtesy of Patricia Hocker, NASPACONGRATS TO CONCHITA DEPROSPO FOR WINNING THE "ROSE" AWARD!In case you are not familiar with the "Rose" award, it's given every year at the NSC. The femaleplayer who best exemplifies Rose Kreiswirth's competitiveness, compassion and congenialityreceives this prestigious prize.I first met Conchita in March, 2010 in St. Augustine, FL. This is where we had our original 15-gameweekend SCRABBLE® tournament. Who knew that this delightful soft-spoken lady would be a tigerat the SCRABBLE® board? I next saw her at the 2012 NSC, located in Orlando, FL, her homestate. But where she would pleasantly surprise everyone was at our 2013 annual St. Augustinetournament, March 22/24th. This 84-year old dynamo would calmly win 14 out of 15 games to takethe top prize in her division. I inquired whether or not she would attend 2014's event and shehappily replied "If I'm alive.” So, Stefan Fatsis of Word Freak fame, talk softly about those bluehairedladies--you never know!!Make sure you come to our March 28/30th, 2014 tournament in St. Augustine, FL to meet the lovelyConchita yourself.BINGOS TO ALL!!!2013 Rose Award winner Conchita Deproso with Division 4 Leader Art Moore and his wife and Division 4assistant, Diane Moore.30
