Congratulations to All!!

 

Sadly, we lost our friend Bob Hersh, who passed away suddenly at the age of 68. Bob moved to the desert 20 years ago from Florida. Initially a bookkeeper, his love was his dog shelter: Furrst & Furrmost Pooch Palace! Anyone who knew Bob will surely miss his kindness and his welcoming smile.

The Ace of Clubs Awards were created in 1984 to annually recognize the top masterpoint winners in local club competition in 15 categories based on number of masterpoints held at the beginning of each year, from 0-5 up to over 10,000.  Only black masterpoints won in ACBL-santioned club games are counted.  In 2011, the Awards were named after Helen Shanbrom because of her exceptional performance in club games - she was the most successful club player in ACBL history - a Grand Life Master with nearly 19,000 of her masterpoints won at club games.
