| RYE DROMANA BRIDGE CONGRESS |
Another year, another Congress.
Well it has been and gone and we had another successful day with all of your Support.
Thankyou especially to Ted, Jac, Bill, Phil and Margaret whose help I could not manage without.
Also a big thankyou to all of those who helped us pack up in record time when the Congress had finished.
We had a lot of entries from the Peninsula area and a special Congratulations to Karen Pert and Barbara Crawford , from the Frankston Club, who had a wonderful day and took out the prize for best Restricted Pair.
The winners were:
OPEN 1st Jack Huang Chen Ding
2nd Justin Stark Dee Harley
RESTRICTED 1st Barbara Crawford Karen Pert
2nd Shelley Shergold Lou Innes
BEST LOCAL PAIR Judy Anderson Dorothy Anderson
A special mention must go to our local Ladies- the 2 Carol's, who had to face Justin Stark and Dee Harley in the very first round- and THEY WON THE MATCH. Well done.
We will see you at all of the Congresses from now on!

| SOUTHERN PENINSULA COMMUNITY SUPPORT-A NEW CALLOUT!! |
We have had a further callout from Jeremy Maxwell at The Southern Peninsula Community Centre, to help to restock their dwindling Pantry Shelves.
This month, they are calling out for Toilet Paper, Disposable Razors, Men's and Women's Deodorant, Regular Sanitary Pads, 1 Litre Long LIfe Milk and Shampoo and Conditioner.
I am asking all of our generous Bridge Players, to once again add an occassional extra item to your shopping to donate to this worthwhile cause.
One of the many ways we help is to ease that financial burden with groceries and material aid, allowing people's limited dollars to stretch a little further.
Any small Contribution from you , will help someone in need.
There will be a collection point at each of our Bridge Sites, for your generous donations.
Your continued support is very much appreciated, by all.

The cost will be $10 per person and if you are brave enough to stay for our afternoon session, there will be no further charge.

| PARTNER NEEDs to be arranged Prior to the game,ON THURSDAY's AT THE BOWLS CLUB |
From THURSDAY 11th September, it will be necessary for you to have an arranged partner, to guarantee that you are able to
get a game.
It has been necessary for me to do this, so that I am able to have at least one game a week myself.
Mondays and Tuesday will remain the same- you can come without an arranged partner.
If you want a game on Thursday and do not have a partner, please message or ring me by 10AM on the Thursday Morning and I will endeavour to find you someone.
Phone. 0410652298.
Also please arrive at Bridge at least 15-20 minutes before we start, so that I am able to calculate how many tables are playing that day.
It is difficult and time consuming to change the movement when people turn up at the last minute.
Thanks for listening.
Jill
