| NO FRAGRANCE POLICY |
The NW Tucson Bridge Club has instituted a NO FRAGRANCE Policy
Some people have an extreme sensitivity to fragrances (colognes or perfumes). Because duplicate bridge requires players to be in close proximity to each other, individuals who suffer from fragrance-related reactions cannot avoid those who are wearing them. Among the commonly reported symptoms are intense headaches or breathing related problems. For those individuals, the issue is much more serious than simply disliking a particular smell - it is a real health problem.
We ask our members to understand this issue and to adhere to our new club policy.
Thank you,
The Board of Directors

| WHAT MAKES NWT SPECIAL |
1. The cold water tap in the kitchen is FILTERED water, which is all we use for coffee, tea, ice and, of course water.
2. For players without partners, we go the extra mile to find an appropriate partner for them. I play with a regular partner on Monday and Tuesday, but most weeks I will be the 'player at large' for any last minute walk-ins. I hope to have a list of others nearby to serve the same purpose. If any of you would like to be on call, just let us know your level of play and available days.
3. Name Tags: I make name tags before the game with the names of those who made a reservation. It is my intention to have a name tag for anyone who wants one. If you have your own, I will still keep a card with your name on it in case you forget yours. For those who use our name tag, please return it to the table at the end of the game. If you don't want one, just cross out your name and return the tag. Name tags add to our friendly atmosphere.
4. We accommodate folks with vision difficulty. Special lighting and large print cards are available when needed.
6. There are several different sweaters, jackets and shawls on the coatrack for use by anyone when the A/C gets too ambitious.
7. There are sodas in the refrigerator for sale at $1.00 per can, and we will put ice out for those who like their coke diluted.
8. If you want just one last cup of coffee at the end of the day, we have a French Press.
