We love to host a party at Friendly Bridge - and we are thrilled that you love to attend.  We had 17 tables of bridge players out to celebrate the 249th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the 4th anniversary of Friendly's re-emergence post-pandemic.  Thanks to our cell phone party fund that helped fund the party (the silence has been fabulous), we had hot dogs, ice cream and apple crisp.  And thanks to all of you we had great sides.  Thanks for choosing to play at Friendly Bridge Club.  We love celebrating holidays with you!

THANKS for your support of the Longest Day Alzheimer's fundraiser

14 1/2 tables played on Friday, and your donations and responses to some fun challenges raised $1362 so far.  I know that some of those funds will be matched by an employer and the table fees will also be forwarded, so GREAT JOB.  Thank you so much as we fight to outshine Alzheimer's.  A thank you video 

YOU are the CHAMPIONS, my FRIEND

The ACBL allows each club to run two Club Championship games per quarter for each game day/time.  Friendly has four games per week, thus we get eight club championship games per quarter.  These games award more masterpoints than regular games.  When I stumbled upon some "Bridge Club Champion" trophies, I decided we could have fun making use of these trophies.  Thus our Club Championship games now come complete with trophies (at least for the photo op), and the winners of the Club Championship games will be the REIGNING club champions - until the next Club Championship game.  

From Monday 5/26's game Jay Gibson and John Schwartz and Debrah Chockley and Jim Harp (not pictured) are the current reigning Club Champions,

From Saturday 5/24's game -Jim Thurtell and John Schwartz

The Thursday's 5/22 game winners were Roz Smith and Mary Lynn Genovesi

and Friday 5/16's game winners were Nancy O'Fallon and Janet Meyer.

Congratulations to the above winners, and we look forward to seeing more of you compete for Friendly CLUB CHAMPIONS!!

How to Make a Reservation

Reservations help us plan, but they are not required.  Make a reservation by going to the "Monthly Calendar/Make Reservation" screen and hover over date you want to make reservation. Press "Reservation Required".  Enter your name, OR email, OR ACBL # and press CHECK. (if you just press enter, you will need to enter your name, or email, or acbl # again and press CHECK).  A prompt should appear for you to enter your partner's name, and direction preference. Then press ADD RESERVATION  If it says "Member not Found" after pressing Check we will need to add you to the database (or determine if we have you with your name spelled differently), so contact us at vjremmers@gmail.com.  If you want to make a reservation for a game in the next month, click on the right arrow in the upper right corner of the calendar to move to the next month.  Note - if you have achieved Life Master and now have a letter as the first character of your ACBL #, you need to enter you ACBL # with the letter in the first digit.
