| Chat Bridge |
Chat Bridge is very casual. The purpose is for people beginning to play bridge to get together to play in a relaxed manner. Instructors are on hand to help with the bidding and play of the hands. Generally there is a theme as to the type of hands that are played. One week, the emphasis may be on notrump bidding and the next week on overcalling.
You are encouraged to come and no partner is needed. Chat Bridge begins at 9:30 am and runs to 12:00.
Nancy Stein, who is our club president and the moderator, will more than welcome you.
