Bridge
Welcome to the Bridge SIG!
The Bridge SIG meets to play social, i.e., not duplicate, bridge. We normally have between two and four tables playing. We are always looking for new players, and all levels of player ability are welcome in this very friendly game. You do not need to bring a partner because we rotate partners, so you will play with everyone. If there are “extra” players, play is rotated among all present.
Announcements
Great news! Effective in April Mason District Governmental Center, our primary play venue, changed their reservation procedures so that we will once again (not since 2021) be able to schedule twice a month. We will no longer have to use other locations. Not only can we now play twice a month, but we can do brown bag lunches at all our games again. Check the game schedule below and the event calendar. I will continue to send out reminders the weekend prior to our games.
If you aren’t currently a member of the Bridge SIG, but would like to join, contact the coordinator (information below).
