| Prepaid Punch Cards |
 ♠ Prepaid Punch Cards ♠
For your convenience, Valley View Bridge Club is offering a Prepaid Punch Card to be used for VVBC games. You will receive10 games for $100. An $11 savings to you. Note: There are a few ACBL-wide special games each year where the ACBL charges extra; therefore, we will not be able to accept the punch card; however, if you choose, you can use your card and pay the extra $1. With that said, the punch card should not be use for the VVBC Sunday Unit 176 games as these games are only $10/pp. See one of the directors to purchase your Prepaid Punch Card.
