Dear Members
Welcome to the last Newsletter of 2023
Covid
There has been a resurgence in covid cases and if you have any symptoms of covid or flu or have been in recent contact with anyone who has, we ask that, due to the vulnerability of some of our members, you do not come to bridge. Masks are not mandatory and can be worn at the discretion of the players.
65% Competition
The 65% competition will be played on the afternoon of 13 December 2023 at 1.15pm for a 1.30pm start. The list of qualifying players will be posted on 1st December. Players may choose their own partners; it is not required to play with the partner that you qualified with. Please ensure that you arrive by 1.15pm at the latest.
The bridge session on the morning of Wednesday 13 December 2023 will be held as usual. Please ensure that you arrive by 9.15am to enable us to fit in both sessions.
Paul Lavings Sale
Paul will be holding a sale of Bridge items after the session on Thursday 7 December 2023. He is offering a 10% discount on all items.
Christmas Party
The Christmas Party will be held on Tuesday 19 December 2023 after the bridge session. The club will provide a ham, chicken and smoked salmon, as well as drinks. Members are asked to bring a plate of either an entrée, a salad, or a slice. The list will go up on December 5, 2023 and you will be asked to indicate your attendance as well as which plate that you will bring. Members are welcome to bring a guest. Please sign up promptly to enable us to cater accurately.
2024 Membership fees
Due to an increase in affiliation fees of both the ABF and the NSWBA the membership fees for 2024 will be $30.00 per member payable from 1 January 2024, by cash or EFT.
Christmas Closure
The club will be closed from the conclusion of the Christmas Party on 19 December 2023 reopening on Tuesday 2 January 2024.
General
We have had a request from a member that players do not wear strong perfume as it impacts on people with allergies.
Our best wishes to everyone for a safe and happy festive season.
Kind regards
Lynda Johnson
