| Christmas raffle |
Members, we have had a very generous donation from our own, very talented Colleen Pillemer for a Christmas raffle.
The beautiful pictures will be on display at the club later this week. One is acrylic, the other watercolour and they are each valued at $300.
The tickets will be $5 each and the winner will have the choice of ONE of the two framed paintings.
Raffle will be drawn at our Christmas party and, if not attending, the winner will be notified within 24hrs.

| Community grant |
Unfortunately, I have to report that the community grant application which was submitted to replace our aging Bridgemates was unsuccessful. We will, in the new year, look at what other opportunities may be available.

| Tuesday sessions |
The decision has been made that for a trial period, until the end of the year, Tuesday sessions will now be capped at 300MP's.
While we would prefer players with more than 100 masterpoints to play with those with only a few points, we understand that some of you would rather just play with a regular or new partner who is not a rookie.
As always we are hoping to hear your feedback to help us make the best decisions for the future.

| Things to bear in mind |
Just a few things to keep in mind at the bridge table.
Firstly, please give the Director your attention and DON'T remove cards from the holder until you are given the go ahead.
Please leave bidding cards on the table until the first lead is made.
Don't argue with your opposition - call the Director - they need to keep in practice.
If the Director is called and makes a ruling with which you disagree, don't argue. Please remember they are volunteers and human so can make a mistake - and you have the right to appeal. This must be done via the Director who will refer it to the Appeals Committee.
