| JUNE HAS THE LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR |
Our Club is again supporting ACBL’s partnership with the Alzheimer’s Association by participating in The Longest Day Campaign.
Donations of ANY amount are appreciated. You can donate at the club or by clicking here.
Several excellent players and professionals have volunteered their playing time for a fixed price in our
“Play Up a Little, Play Up a Lot” fundraiser.
All of the funds raised will be donated to the Alzheimer's Association.
Click THE LONGEST DAY button to see the list of players you can purchase and instructions.
On Saturday, June 24, the club will hold a special game with all entry fees going to the Alzheimer’s Association. We will have a Potluck lunch at noon and an Open game at 1:00 pm with extra point awards.
