In light of the various requests regarding eligibility for a free meal at the annual Zenon Bridge Club Christmas party, the committee for the Zenon Bridge Club discussed the issue on the 14th December 2015.  In the hopes of meeting demands for greater flexibility in determining eligibility, a decision was taken by the committee which is to be applicable as of Christmas 2016.  Keeping in mind that the annual Zenon financial year runs from 1st October to 31st September of the following year, it was decided that those individuals who had paid to participate in the bridge games for a minimum of 20 times during the financial year would not be charged for the meal.  Those individuals who had paid to play in 15-19 bridge games during that period would pay the difference between the number of games they played and that year's negotiated price for the meal per person.  For example, someone who had played in 19 games would have to pay 2 Euros this year, as the agreed price is now set at 21 Euros.  Likewise, a person playing in 15 games would pay 6 Euros (21 - 15 = 6).  Those individuals who participated in less than 15 games during the financial year would be required to pay the full cost of the meal.  Guests would continue to pay full cost.
