Monday Non-Sanctioned Duplicate Bridge
Sandy Blackburn
It’s a good time to think about still staying inside and playing some bridge. This group meets in the Palm Room at Eagle’s Nest. If you are new to the community or have been a longtime resident and would like to play duplicate bridge, we would enjoy having you join us. Someone may need a partner. If you haven’t played duplicate before, others will show you the difference in scoring. Sign up in the blue binder on the book shelves across from the Pro Shop in Eagle’s Nest or call Sandy Blackburn at 623-536-8062 for more information. If you don’t already have a partner, sign up at the bottom of the sheet and we’ll try to pair you with someone until you find a permanent partner. We play each Monday starting at 12:15 p.m.
