We are excited to announce a 0-499er masterpoint spooktacular to be held on Halloween, Monday, October 31, 2022, at the Palo Alto Bridge Center:
0-499 players – if you haven’t played bridge face-to-face in a while at the Bridge Center, here is an opportunity to do so in a special stratified, 0-499er limited section at a $4.99/player price.
Also, playing in the October 31 game will be a great warm-up for the Palo Alto Unit’s October 14-16 Sectional, with 100% silver points being awarded.
We strongly encourage you to arrive early to hear Lynn Yokel’s legendary “4 Hands” bridge lecture at 9:30 AM. Lynn will review four bridge hands, with learnings to be had on bidding, declarer play, and defense. Lynn is an outstanding teacher, and this is an opportunity to improve your bridge skills.
Lynn is an ACBL Associate National Tournament Director who is well-known to Bay Area bridge players, having directed many Regional and Sectional tournaments in the area (including the 2022 Firecracker) as well as nationally. Lynn is a Diamond Life Master, a long-time bridge club director, and teacher. She received the ACBL’s Jean Molnar Award for excellence in customer service and directing.
Bridge Center games require pre-registration at www.signup123.com/unit503bridge Also, included at that website is a feature allowing one to use the reservation system to find a partner. (The instructions for doing that are on each reservation page.)
COVID Requirements: Players must be fully vaccinated, including booster shots if eligible for them.
There is no mask requirement at the Bridge Center, unless a player at a table requests that they be worn there, so some players wear them and some don’t. We’re also serving coffee, tea, pizza, fresh fruit, various cheeses, breads, pastries, nuts, and other fun munchies, with new snacks each week.
We look forward to seeing you and sharing a Halloween fun time at the Bridge Center (432 Stierlin Road, Mountain View).
