The club has decided to reinstated the policy to award pairs who achieve a 70% game with a free game. 2024 saw the following players achieve that goal:
Anne and Bob Manning X8
Leigh Ives x2
Jane Foster
Don and Chris Beck x2
Sandra Monk
Janice Upeniek
Paul and Melissa Crossland
Kim and Bill Koski
In addition, the club awarded Anne Manning a free game for earning the most Master Points 112.65 for playing in our face-to-face games. Well done!
One final free game was given to Ross Penny for playing in the most games. Ross played 179 times in 2024. Great!
As of May 7, 2025 the club will be suspending the Wednesday afternoon game and instituting an early evening game starting at 6:00 p.m with a maximum of 24 boards. Players will still be able to drive home with some daylight left. We will try this for a 2 month period. After the game Bill Koski (13,000 + master points) will discuss the bidding and playing of one board. Thanks Bill. Come out and join us.
The Annual General Meeting will be held at the club on May 21, 2025 starting at 5:00 p.m.
A slate of who is running will be out at least a month prior to the meeting.
Mark your calendars the Helen Shields Rookie/Master game will be on April 2, 2025 at 1pm. Keep an eye out for the sign-up sheet at the club.
Our Valentine's day lunch and game was a great success. Thanks to Becky for organizing.
Congratulations to Nancy Pakulak for achieving her Life Master designation.
