0-50 Supervised Play
0-50 Game with Mini-lesson from 9-11:30 on Tuesday mornings. We welcome our newer players and students to come join us. It’s a super relaxed atmosphere. You will have the opportunity to ask all your questions about the bidding, the play, and the defense. We are a friendly no stress group and are here to help you wherever you want help. Earn masterpoints while you learn. Come with or without a partner. We can get you a partner. Mini lesson will precede each game with our Tuesday team of Linda Ryder, Dae Leckie, and John Jonas. They will focus on helping new players get a solid foundation in the basics. Watch our weekly Sunday morning emails and this page to see topics for the week!
0-200 Lesson & Game
The Friday morning lessons and games are intended for players who have completed beginning bridge lessons, are coming back to the game, or for those players who would like a refresher. During the summer, we skip the lesson and just play. The game begins at 9:00 AM SHARP! $10 card fee for a great game with wonderful people and good snacks!
Attendance is booming! Come and see why it’s the place to be!
Trudi and I would like to thank each and every one of you for your support of our Friday morning game. Your response and attendance is very rewarding. We appreciate you!
In the Fall, we like to start with the basics for the benefit of our newer players. For those that have been playing awhile, I bet you will learn something new too! Please let Trudi or Susan know if there is a specific topic you would like to see us review. This is your class. Let us know what you want!
Here’s the schedule:
October 17: Negative Doubles
October 24: Balancing Doubles
October 31: Barometer Game – Don’t let the ghouls and goblins scare you away from this popular game!
November 7: Inverted Minors
November 14: New Minor Forcing
November 21: STaC. FULL SILVER!

No partner needed. We guarantee you will play. This is a very fun and friendly group. The more you play, the more comfortable you will become with the bidding and the play of the hand.

MENTORED PLAY FOR OUR NEWEST BEGINNERS
0-20 Supervised Play
Wednesdays at 12:30 PM with volunteer mentors
Fee: $10
No partner required.
Prior registration is not required.
If you are a beginner in the 0-20 master point range, come join us to get quality practice time with mentors on hand to help and answer your questions. If you are already attending Tuesday mornings and/or Friday mornings, add another time slot and get more play time! This is a fun-filled no-stress place to practice!
We award Masterpoints, so please arrive with time to spare and stay to play for 12 to 15 boards which can run until approximately 3:15 – 4 PM. Late arrival makes it challenging for us to arrange the table movement and partnerships, so try to be there with time to spare. This is a learning game where you can practice with volunteer mentors at the tables. Masterpoints are awarded to the top scorers.
On October 29, there will be a Mini-Lesson on Hand Evaluation at 11:30 AM before the game taught by Joan Hundley! See below or click here for flyer.
