Conveniently located off Hwy 406, across from the Pen Centre in St. Catharines, Ontario, we are proud to have nearly 300 members. We are a member owned, and volunteer run club drawing from the entire Niagara Region.

BCON believes in fostering the game of Bridge, by catering to players of all levels. We have games for new players, experienced "card sharks," and everything in between. Games are available most days and we offer both face to face and online. Please keep checking our website for our up to date game schedule. We are pleased to have an active education program, whether you have never played cards before, need a brush up, or want to advance your game to the next level. Of course, with all the brain work that goes on in Bridge, we love to socialize and have fun! We hold regular social events to give everyone a chance to mix, mingle and make new friends. Please join our mailing list to receive up coming information.

We always welcome visitors, and hope you'll come to one of our games. Do you need a partner? We'll do our best to help, just send us an email.

How to know if the Club is open?

Winter is upon us, and bad weather can happen at any time. Here is how you will know if the Club is open, and if your game is on.

• If the game at the Club has been canceled due to inclement weather, you will receive an email at the latest, by 2 hours before the game start. 
• Please make sure your email with the Club is up to date and that members@bridgewebsemail.com is in your contact list so that it doesn’t go to spam.
• If you are not currently on our email list, but would like to receive emails from us, please send an email to members@bridgewebsemail.com, or through any links on the Club’s website. For those with Cogeco/Bell/Sympatico addresses, see note below.
• Additionally, closure information will be posted on the Club’s website. 
• If the game is canceled, we will do our best to move the game online, and we hope you will join us there. Again, information will be provided both by email and on the website. 

We do not take the decision to close the Club lightly, and we take the safety of our members very seriously. Even if the weather seems ok, at game start time, we may decide to close the Club based on the forecast. Please remember that Niagara is a large region, with many microclimates; just because the weather looks fine where you are, doesn’t mean that it’s fine in other parts of the region. 

To summarize, if the weather appears questionable, or there is any kind of bad weather forecast for Niagara, please check your email, and check the website two hours before the game to make sure the game is still running.

Note: Do you have a Cogeco/Sympatico/Bell email account? If so, you are likely NOT getting emails from us. If your email is Bell or Sympatico, ALL emails coming from BCON have been blocked. Similarly, many but not all Cogeco accounts are blocked by Cogeco.  Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about this, as the emails are blocked by the provider. We urge you to provide an email address other than Cogeco/Bell/Sympatico. More details on this issue are on our home page, as well as on the bulletin board at the Club.

For 2025, BCON has chosen to support Hospice Niagara. Here at The Bridge Centre of Niagara, we believe in supporting local charities within the Niagara Region.

We have a long standing relationship with the Alzheimer Society of Niagara, and each year around the Summer Solstice in June, we run an event for "The Longest Day," which raises funds to support those with Alzheimers in our local area. This year, our members raised a very impressive $6,340, even surpassing the huge amount of $5,600 raised in 2024! 

In addition, each year, a local charity is chosen for which we raise funds through special games and social events. In 2023 our selected charity was Community Care of St. Catharines and Thorold, for which we raised $615 in cash, as well as large amounts of food donations. 

We are very proud of our members, who continue to generously support all of these wonderful organizations! You can see some of the recognitions in the photos accompanying this post, or by clicking here. (Please be patient, as it loads onto your screen.)
