Bridge continues to be a going concern! This spring we've had many weeks where we have 20 members playing. We're happy to say we've been able to accommodate most of our spare (wait list folks) players at least sometimes! On June 3 we split the group of 20 between two houses. Valerie and Skip took 8 players, and Lorna took 12. The following week Marilynn took 3 tables of 12 players. Betty accommodated us on June 19 with 4 tables of 16 players and, on June 27, Shelley hosted 16 players. We all chip in a loonie at the beginning of the games and our winners can win up to 8 or 9 dollars when we have 20 players. It's a fun end to the game, as players often linger after helping to clean up, to see who won the pot! A loonie also goes to the lowest score, to encourage them! :).
