What's Happening?

The Bridge game that was scheduled for Thanksgiving Day has been cancelled.

The annual Club Members Meeting will be held on Tuesday, 10 November, starting at Noon.  Pizza will be served.  Currently there will be two open positions on the Board of Directors, one for President and one for Member-at-Large.  Currently there are two candidate running for these position, Nancy Thelin for President and Carol Murphy for Member-at-Large.  If any other member wishes to be a candidate for these positions, please contact Al Vaccaro at albert43.vacc@gmail.com.  If you cannot attend the meeting but would like to vote, contact Al Vaccaro.

We also need a new Secretary as Lynn Firester will be resigning.  If any club member is interested in running for this position, or serving as the "member-at-large" please contact Al Vaccaro.

The annual Christmas Party will be held on Tuesday, December 8th, starting at noon.  You are welcome to bring a dish.  See Lynda Edson or Kathleen Rankin if you plan to bring a dish as they will be coordinating the food and drinks.

Due to the decrease in attendance at the March 2026 Sectional, the Club will not have a Sectional Tournament in 2027.

Due to the lack of attendance at the Friday games held for January thru March 2026, the board has voted to cancel the Friday games for 2027.

 

There are several special games on the schedule where extra points are awarded or Gold, Red and/or Silver points awarded.  The Club does NOT charge extra for these games.
