Save for GrandSlam card holders, International Fund games cost $1 extra.
For all who play, International Fund games award DOUBLE BLACK master points.
We'll play International Fund games this Friday 9/18, Tuesday 9/29 (New Partner & Fall Feast day), and on Wednesday 9/30 (Barometer game).
Thanks for playing at NKBC!

| Something Old, New, Borrowed, Something Blue |

Don't know what it means, but I borrowed the photo, and the jeans are definitely blue. We can probably manage the 'old' part, and all we need is a NEW partner, and then we've got it!
At the end of September on Tuesday 9/29, we'll host another NEW partner game. Any pair may play, but if you find a partner you haven't played with since our last NEW partner game on May 29 (just four months ago), you get a free game (GrandSlam card holders get $5).
AND, with Autumn just beginning, let's make this game a party and call it a Fall Feast. Please bring something you would like to share for lunch.
This game is always a lot of fun, so be creative and try to find a NEW partner for this game.

| Barometer Game Wednesday 9/30 |

With our new BridgeMates, let's see how well this works.
The calendar says IMP pairs, but let's play a regular pairs game, barometer style. We'll all play the same boards at the same time, and we'll use the BridgeMates to show us our ranking as we go along.
That will allow for some added strategy, particularly if we're not doing so well and need to catch up!

We start at 11:00 and finish before 3:00, and play about 18-22 hands. The cost is just $2. The game is perfect for beginning players and mentoring pairs. We play a slower paced game on Thursdays. It's a great way to learn. We have a lot of fun and talk about the hands as we play them. These games award ACBL masterpoints and are configured as a "4-Is-Enough" game. Anyone may play, but players with more than 1000 masterpoints must partner with someone who holds less than 500.
Please plan to join us. If you can, please let Howard or Cordell know you're intending to play.
