Rod will continue giving short bridge lessons at noon on the first Thursday of each month.
All players are responsible for playing at the correct table and side. North is responsible for checking that the boards are correct with the Bridgemates.
The Tuesday night game will start at 6pm (eating in the bridge room is allowed, but facilities are limited). This Senior Center game will be held at the lower building at 4125 Cox Court. Parking is on Cox Court, with a few places (including handicapped parking) in the rather small parking lot.
Our big game is the Thursday afternoon game at the Knights of Columbus. We also have a Monday afternoon game at the Knights of Columbus starting at 12:30 (no longer at the Senior Center). Be sure to show up early for the first Monday game of each month, as we have to be done by 4pm. All three of our sanctioned games now have a 99er section added for the newer players, or for anyone with less than 100 masterpoints.
Dave (307 630-1955) started free Easy Bridge lessons at the Senior Center in Sept. on Mondays and Tuesdays (you can call him for detailed information).
The cost for Thursday games is $5 for each player, including special games, club championship games and Eight is Enough Team games. The Monday game will cost $3 and a buck more for special games. Special games with extra points include STaC, NAP. GNT, and Charity. Costs for the Tuesday game at the Senior Center will initially be $2 - a buck more for some special games.
It is important to show up at least 10 minutes before game time, or have a partner there by then, so we can know how to set up the game. Players who are late may not be allowed to play! Please turn off ringer on your cell phone while playing! If you need to use your phone, please go outside the playing area and not be a distraction to others. Cell phones can be very distractive and penalties for the current board being played could result if problems persist.
Food will not normally be provided by the unit. Water/coffee will be available. Goodies baked by players are always welcome at our games. Everyone is expected to help putting away bridge supplies and card tables/chairs, etc. after each game.
All game results will be posted on ACBL Live shortly after the game is completed. Knights of Columbus bar (Casey's Club) opens at 4pm – players are encouraged to socialize there after the Thursday game.
