There are several special games on the schedule where extra points are awarded or Gold, Red and/or Silver points awarded.  Please review.

Several of the members of the Greater Venice Duplicate Bridge Club, are planning to take the Regional at Sea Bridge cruise scheduled for April 19, 2026.  So I wanted to let everyone know of our plans - not that we are recruiting people for the cruise - but to make sure everyone else feels invited to join us.  This cruise on Royal Caribbean.

For those who have not taken a bridge cruise, you should know there are bridge games available every day at 10:00am, 2:00pm and 8:00pm, as well as a 9:00am lesson and discussions after every session. A Regional Tournament at sea is an excellent way to get gold and red points.  There is an ad for this cruise in your monthly Bridge Bulletin.  Please contact me if interested.
