This year our local charity donation will go to DAYS FOR GIRLS. This is a team of dedicated volunteers who produce menstrual kits for girls and women to be sent to third world countries
Under the umbrella of Days for Girls International our local Barrie chapter is headed up by our own Evelyne Stefanison. 
Without this help girls in third world countries are unable to go to school for several days each month, missing out on education and changing their lives forever.
Please join us to support this worthwhile cause.

 ♦ ♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​CHASE THE ACE IS BACK ♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​♦ ​​​​​​​♦ 

· Every day there is a game at the club, tickets for the CHASE THE ACE lottery are sold.

· Tickets are 1 for $2.00 or 3 for $5.00.

· Each day a ticket is drawn and the winning ticket of that draw gets 25% of the sales for that day. If necessary, the amount will be rounded off to the advantage of the daily winner.

· 25% of the sales for the day gets added to a “JACKPOT” until the ACE of SPADES is drawn (see more details below).

· 50% of the sales for that day goes to the BBC.

· Tickets sales are restricted to members of the Barrie Bridge Club.

· A standard deck of cards will be used.

· The draw winner for the day gets a chance to win the JACKPOT by selecting one card from a standard deck of cards.

· If the Ace of Spades is chosen from the deck of cards, the winner gets the JACKPOT.

· If the Ace of Spades is not drawn, the selected card is removed from the deck and the 25% goes into the prize pot for the next draw. The selected card will be voided and posted on a Chase the Ace bulletin board.

· At the end of each draw, the rest of the deck will be displayed, to show that the Ace of Spades is still in the deck.

· The remaining cards from standard deck will be sealed in an envelope.

· The contest continues with the same standard deck of cards until the Ace of Spades is drawn.

· And then we start again!

Barrie Bridge Club virtual game results are now being incorporated into our web site right after the conclusion of each game.  See the results for the last 10 games in the upper right-hand corner of the website highlighted in green. You can see older virtual game results by clicking Results in the blue menu in the upper left corner of this web site.  All points shown on our website are actual ACBL masterpoints awarded and not BBO points.

You can still see the old-style BBO point results by clicking below. Also given is the link to the ACBL site for their version of our Club's virtual game results. So you have lots of choices in how you view your game results!
