Member News

It is with great sadness that we report Mildred Breed passed away last week.  Mildred was a World Champion bridge player who frequently played at our club after COVID.  Her family will be holding a "Celebration of Life" service the first week in January for invited guests at the Stone Chapel by the Lanier Theological Library.

Reminder

Bridge is as friendly as the players, and it’s important to be a good partner and opponent. Introduce your partner and yourself to the opponents at the start of each round. Thank your partner when she puts down the dummy. Wish the opponents good luck before you start the game. Don’t get upset about a bad result — you get to start fresh with the next 13 cards. Successful partnerships will discuss difficult hands and situations where something went wrong after the session in private.
