All games are stratified, and all levels are welcome!

TBH Summer Symposia Underway Now!

Fifth Sunday Wine and Cheese

The Bridge House will host another session of expert analysis following the LRDBC pairs game scheduled for the fifth Sunday in June (June 29).  Stick around after the game to find out more about our great game.  Bring your questions for the discussion leader and others in the session.

Game time is 1:30 p.m., and the discussion will follow immediately.  Maybe find a partner that you normally can't find a spot for on your calendar?  Maybe a private mentoring session?  Or play with your regular partner and come to have some good fun and discussion.

And wine and cheese, of course.
