| Autumn Schedule |
|
♠ Next week - 4th. Sept. - we're back to normal after the summer break - playing in the side dining room. It's been a pleasure to have many of the U3A members join us for our summer afternoon sessions. I would hope that many of them will continue to come - maybe every other week when no lessons are scheduled for the U3A - you are most welcome.

The Rest Bridge Club was founded in 2004 as an off shoot from the U3A teaching group, and since its inception Rex has undertaken the exacting job of Chairman, nursing the Club through its formative years. He has promoted a culture of 'friendly bridge' within the Club, but still managed to maintain a degree of competitiveness. At the recent AGM, Rex has been honoured with Life Membership of the Club.
