Supervised Play
We also have supervised play sessions. You can come on your own or with a partner or foursome and play hands with other new players in a non-competitive environment. With the help of volunteers who can give you real-time advice, it's your opportunity to practice and see practical examples of what you've learned. The cost per session is $12. This is held on Saturdays from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm.
