SUMMARY:Saturday Sampler

We do ask you to register for each class in advance (scroll down) so we can prepare enough pre-made boards and handouts. \nDo I need a partner? No\, but partners are encouraged to attend together. \nWill classes always be the 4th Saturday of the month? No – class dates may shift due to unit games or other events\, but will usually be the 4th or 5th Saturday. \nDo I need to know 2 Over 1? No\, classes will use Standard American bidding; but will often be useful to 2/1 players as well. \nUpcoming Classes \nFor more information email Anna Ravenscroft annaraven@gmail.com
