| Bridge Refresher |
BACK to BASICS
A class will be held every Wednesday in July, starting July 3 from 10am to noon at Conservatory Pond.
This is designed for people who have not played for a while, maybe due to Covid, and feel they need a refresher course.
Also, for the people who have taken some of the lessons at the senior centre, but missed a few for various reasons.
Open to all who wish to attend.
So come join us, and improve your game.
