I knew if we had snow on Mt. Wilson
there would be an opportunity for great views from the
bridge club. Last week we were all taking pictures out
the window!
Here's a view from my Thursday morning
Bridge Basics 1 class.
And by the way, I have over five tables each in Bridge
Basics 2 - Competitive Bidding on Wednesday
evenings, and Bridge Basics 1 - Introduction on
Thursday mornings!

That would be my face smiling from the
middle of page 22 of the March ACBL Bridge Bulletin.
Chip Dombrosky did a marvelous write up. Everything in the
article sounded familiar, but it was hard to realize that
it was about me!
Defense course!
Defense starts this Thursday evening, 7-9
PM. It will run for eight Thursday evenings.
This is one of the most powerful
courses in the catalog, and can seriously change how you
look at a bridge hand.
The classes in this course also stand alone very well. If
you see a specific topic you'd like to explore, or only
have availability for a few classes, you might consider
dropping in for the one session at a time.
Here's the lesson plan and more information: https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/course/defense
Single classes are $25, and the full set of eight is $130
which includes the text book.
Thursday Noon
Supervised Play
Thursdays at Noon will be a supervised
play session for all of my new students, and a great
time for new players (who prefer not to go out in the
evenings) to get together and practice.
As the game grows, we'll make this into
a regular novice duplicate game. Thursday Noon FTW!
Tuesday evening novice
pairs
We have players coming out to play on
Tuesday evenings! If you're not there you're missing out
on the fun.
I've found that a 12-board game is very
popular, and finishes by 9:00 with no problem. Lots of
partners available if you don't have one!
Pasadena Unit Game
March 12
The Pasadena San Gabriel Bridge Unit 559
has opted to hold its annual meeting, lunch, and bridge
game at the Pasadena Bridge Club. Lunch (pizza from
Blaze!) will be at 12:00 and game time will be 12:30.
Reservations required please!
STaC week coming March
20
That's a Sectional Tournament at Clubs.
We'll be offering Silver Points at games during
the week of March 20 through March 26.
We'll definitely have Silver Point
games on Wednesday at 11:00 a.m. (Open Pairs) and
Saturday afternoon at 1:00 p.m. (0-300).
If there's a time when you'd like to
see an additional game offered that week, let me know!
Maybe we can add a game to the calendar.
Did you know ...
... there's an ice machine in
the break room? It's under the counter to the left of
the sink. There's always plenty of ice to go with tea
from the iced tea service, or a soda from the soda
'fridge.
I've also just added a Primo water
dispenser, serving fresh chilled and hot water.
This will be a great replacement for the small bottles
of water that were in the 'fridge.
I'll be swapping out the "sweet tea"
for lemonade soon. Arnold Palmers for everyone! :)
Is there a soda you'd rather see in the
'fridge than what we have? I already know there are lots
of Diet Coke fans out there. Let me know about others.
Best regards,
Mojo, Jane, Zach
