CONGRATULATIONS TO JO ANN STEIGMEYER AND RICH MAO FOR ACHIEVING SAPPHIRE LIFE MASTER!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

JO ANN STEIGMEYER’S ADVANCED BEGINNER/INTERMEDIATE CLASS: 

MONDAYS 9:30-11am, $7/class, no partner needed, rsvp by Sat eve to joann1107@comcast.net

3/24 Two doubles are a must in everyone’s bridge arsenal - Takeout doubles and Negative doubles.  They come up very often and are needed to handle difficult situations. Let’s explore them, their uses and why they are necessary.  For example, partner opens 1 club and, with 6-9 points and a 4-card heart suit, you plan to bid 1 heart.  But your right hand opponent (RHO) bids 1 spade, now what do you do?  We have the solution.

3/31 No class as Jo Ann will be working on the newsletter.
