A North Richland Hills club plays every other Monday, and teachers come on one of them
The library lists American ruleset play on alternating Mondays into late November, with guest teachers on the second Monday of each month and none on the fourth.
The North Richland Hills Library in North Richland Hills, Texas lists a recurring Mahjong Club. Per the library's calendar, sessions run from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. on 14 September, 28 September, 12 October, 26 October, 9 November and 23 November 2026.
The listing names the version, stating that play follows the American Mahjong ruleset. It also says space is limited, that registration is required, and that players should sign up for each date they want to attend rather than once for the series.
The teaching is scheduled rather than assumed, and the listing is specific about it. Guest teachers are described as available to show newcomers the ropes on the second Monday of each month, and the page notes plainly that instruction is not available on the fourth Monday. For anyone learning, that means the September date to aim at is the 14th, not the 28th.
Prim's suggestion, not a rule: when a room tells you which day the teaching happens, believe it, and go on that day. Arriving on the wrong Monday is the quietest way to conclude a game is not for you.
