FALSE ALARM !!!!!!

I am now , NOT going to Queensland on Thursday 25th June, so Supervised lessons will be on as per usual.

See you on Thursday.

The Rye Dromana Bridge Club offers the best of bridge on the Southern Peninsula.

Sessions are held 3 days a week.

Mondays  - Duplicate - Percy Cerutty Oval, PORTSEA.  Arrive by 9.15am for a 9.30am start 

Tuesdays - Duplicate - Salvation Army Hall, Melaleuca Avenue, Capel Sound. Arrive by 12.45pm for a 1.00pm start

 Thursday - Duplicate - Rosebud Beach Community Bowls Club, 952 Point Nepean Rd, Rosebud.  Arrive by 12.45pm for a 1.00pm start

Red points are awarded on the first Thursday of each Month.

Table Fees (2026)

Member of Rye - Dromana Bridge Club  $12.00 .       Visitors   $15.00. 

Please Note: You must be either a Full Member of the Rye Dromana Bridge Club ($70per year) or an associate Member ($25) as of 1st April 2026 to qualify for the $12 table fee.

You have all been very generous in supporting our call for Donations to the Southern Peninsula Community Support Centre.

It has been suggested to me that rather than bringing food items etc., it would be a good idea to ask all those Bridge Players to contribute $1 extra to the table Fees, at each session they attend.

We are going to trial this, starting on Thursday July 2nd.

This extra amount will be completely voluntary and will be accounted for at each session. I hope to have a chart, informing everyone how our Donations are going and also how they are helping some of the most vulnerable members of our Community.

Thank you all for your ongoing generosity.

Each week, we have approx 80 Bridge Players playing at our 3 venues, so this could be a very worthwhile venture.

I have had many requests for Supervised Bridge to return, so I aim to start them again from Thursday 5th March.

They will be held from 10am until 12 noon at the Rosebud Beach Bowling Club.

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.

Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested in our informal Supervised Sessions.

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.

Carol Joyce has very kindly volunteered to send out a Club Newsletter, every 2 months, keeping us all in touch with what is going on in the Bridge World.

She will be wishing all those Members who are having Birthdays at that time, a Happy Birthday and adding their name to our Birthday list for that Month.

If you do not wish to have your Birth Month included in our newsletter, please indicate to me- Jill and it will not be added. 

If you have any items of interest regarding Bridge, please let us know.

Also favourite recipes, jokes etc.

Thanks.
