The CLAW (Cartoonists League of Absurd Washingtonians) will be having our monthly Open Swim this Wednesday evening, March 24th, 2010. Normally we have a theme, but this time the theme has morphed and hideously evolved into… wait for it… A GAME!
We’ll be playing the game that will soon be sweeping the nation: WIN LOSE OR CLAW! Bring some friends and get ready to team up with and take on CLAW. We’ll provide the paper and the pens, you provide your imagination and some fun.

Did I mention there’s hoppin’ good prize for the winning team? Be there to fight for the sweetest prize yet offered…

Wednesday, 7:30 p.m. March. 24th 2010
