CD Congress

All available rooms in The Park are now taken, as is my overspill allocation in The Links. There is still ample room in the card room but new players will have to find their own accommodation.

2024 Charity Pairs

Many thanks to all who worked so hard to make the 2024 Charity Pairs a resounding success. Special mention must go to Alice, ably assisted by Liz, who coordinated everything associated with the raffle and ticket sales at Dundee Bridge Club. Thanks to all who bought tickets, made cash donations, or donated prizes for the raffle. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. £912.02 was raised  in aid of Action for Pulmonary Fibrosis. 

The three main raffle prizes winners were Lynn Fullerton - £100.00 cash, Janis Hughes - Dolphin Watch Excursion, Jackie Primrose - Family Portrait Photography Voucher. Other raffle winners who were not present on the day will be contacted to arrange the pick up/hand over of the prize.

Congratulations go to the winners of the Charity Pairs bridge event, Earl McGregor and Helen Wood.

Central District Charity Pairs

Many thanks to all who supported the 2023 CD Charity Pairs by attending the event, buying and selling raffle tickets and donating a wonderful array of prizes. The event was played in a lovely spirit and an excellent afternoon tea from FreshJet certainly hit the spot. Thanks to all the organisers and helpers who ensured that all ran smoothly on the day with a particular shout out going to Alan, Chris & Lynne, Moira, Alice and Matthew. Once everything has been tallied up and expenses are paid, a total amount raised in this charity campaign will be posted here.
