TAMPA BAY BRIDGE CENTER recently elected a new Board of Directors:
PRESIDENT - ALICE ROSENTHAL
VICE PRESIDENT - MERRILL MARX
SECRETARY - JUDY HANSON
TREASURER - ADEL ERYAN
ZERO TOLERANCE - VICKI WAGNER
EDUCATION - MARK SMITH
FACILITY MANAGER – JEAN NIEDORF

CLUB MANAGER - LARRY SULLIVAN
We want to thank BRUCE MAIER, our former PRESIDENT, for his selfless service to our club. Bruce had served on the board for the last 6 years and rolled off due to term limits. Over the years, Bruce has gone above and beyond to make TBBC the very best. I am happy to say, Bruce has agreed to serve as an advisor to the board since he possesses a deep knowledge of past events.
Please take a moment to thank BRUCE for his hard work and welcome our new board, especially ALICE ROSENTHAL, as she takes the helm. ALICE was a unanimous choice for our new President, as she has proven over the years her ability to manage and serve in that capacity!
UPCOMING EVENTS!
This week, March 13-18, are CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES, awarding extra points without any extra fees.
Don’t forget we have a ROYAL STAC WEEK coming up March 20- 26. As a reminder this means, all points are 1/4 each, RED, SILVER, GOLD AND BLACK! Plan to come out and play!
Lastly, I’m happy to report we are having a very nice turnout for our new LIMITED GAME on Thursdays at 12:30. The point limit is 999, and it is a very friendly game and also very good bridge play!
If you are a limited player, novice or intermediate, try it once and I can assure you, you won’t be disappointed. If you don’t have a partner, contact the club or just come anyway as you are guaranteed a partner!
The lesson for the 3/16 Thursday game will be Major Criss-Cross. The lesson will begin at 12:00.
NEW AT THE CLUB!
We now take CREDIT CARDS and DEBIT CARDS!! Thanks to ADEL and LARRY we have now entered the 21st Century. You can pay cash or credit card/debit card for game fees and membership dues. We accept Visa, Mastercard and American Express. There is an additional fee of 30 cents for each card transaction which simply covers our cost.
Also, once the game begins the Director locks the front door. If you have to go out front and need to get back in there is a new doorbell on the left side of the front door. Shout out to LESLIE OSTERWEIL for the donation and to LARRY for installing it.
GOOD LUCK to our club members who are going to the NATIONAL TOURNAMENT in NEW ORLEANS this next week - BRING HOME SOME GOLD AND PLATIUM MPs AND NATIONAL TITLES!!
On behalf of the BOARD OF DIRECTORS, we wish you a wonderful week!
