A Festival of Bridge

We are joining the EBU in supporting Cancer Research UK. During this week, all table money and any other money raised will go to this worthy cause. We are having an Open Day with taster sessions on Wednesday 11th Sept 2.00pm-4.30pm and 6.00pm-8.30pm. Please encourage any friends who may be interested and come along yourselves to support us.
We are celebrating the Club’s 80th Anniversary with a meal, entertainment and a raffle at 6.30 pm at Barrow Golf Club on Thursday 12th September. This is free to members. The (subsidised) cost for guests has been set at £30.
If you are planning on attending, please sign up in the club so that we have an idea how many to cater for, or reply by e mail.
We would like to have a cake sale at all club sessions that week. Calling all bakers: please would you sign up in the club to indicate that you would be willing to bake a cake.
More information to follow as we get closer to the festival. Any other ideas for raising money are welcome.

Welcome to Barrow Bridge Club. We are a friendly club located in beautiful South Cumbria. It has often been said we are located at the end of a 30 mile cul-de-sac. Despite our remote location, we have embraced modern technology. We are a thriving club with approximately 70 members who range in ability.
If you are interested in learning to play, we hold lessons for those interested in taking up this wonderful game and we would love to hear from you.
We use Duplimated boards and Bridgemates scoring system for instant results at the end of the evenings play.
Visitors who can already play bridge are very welcome. If you wish to play, or if you need a partner to do so, please contact the club or secretary in advance and we will try to find one for you if at all possible. We would be delighted to enjoy a game with you.
We play in the Club on Monday and Thursday evenings at 7pm and Tuesday and Friday afternoons at 1.15pm. Please be in the club and seated by these times. We are located at 1A Drake Street Barrow in Furness LA14 5RG (Corner of Hartington Street and Drake Street).
We also play online three times a week on Monday at 1pm and Friday at 1.30 pm and Tuesday evenings at 7pm, register at least 30 minutes beforehand. We welcome new players who would like to join us online only.
Barrow Bridge Club is affiliated to the EBU (www.ebu.co.uk) and is a member of Cumbria County Bridge Association. (www.bridgewebs.com/cumbria)
