Welcome to our UnitJuanita J. Girand Welcome to you as a new member Palo Alto Bridge Unit 503! We are delighted to have you on board. As Membership Chairman, I would like to commend some resources the Unit provides which will keep you up to date on current activities as well as help you find partners, bridge lessons, etc. Included in this packet is a copy of the monthly Kibitzer, our monthly newsletter. Inside on page three you will find starting times for games for those with under 50 M.P. The last page of this newsletter is invaluable. It provides all the information for each game: day, types of games, times, and directors. If no location is listed in the Place/Other Info column, it means that game is held at the Bridge Center. Also, be sure to check out the SPECIAL EVENTS section which lists unique Club activities as well as nearby Sectional and Regional events. Once a month on a Sunday the Unit has a Unit Game which provides extra points to the winners, and we provide a section for folks who have less than 50 M.P. (Sometimes these special games are oversubscribed, so be sure to sign up in advance on the sheet on Club Bulletin Board if you intend to play in one of these games.) Another great source of information is the Unit 503 website: www.paloaltobridge.com. The Website Menu offers several primary options: Games, Unit, Education, Other and Contact Us. There is a wealth of information here. You will find your game results posted on our website and, if the cards were predealt with the Unit's dealing machine, you can see the hand record for that game. All the Kibitzers are online as well. Go to “Other” and click on Bridge Links which will turn up Bridge Games On-Line and more. From Bridge links continue to Miscellaneous Sites, and Bridge Clues by Mike Lawrence which is one my favorites for a daily taste of bidding and playing problems. Included in this packet is a copy of the most recently published Unit 503 Directory of Members and Friends. And lastly, I am including a gift certificate for one free play with a value of $7.00, which can be presented to the director of any Unit 503 game. I wish you great cards and lots of fun. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to call me at home 650-328-3345. I look forward to meeting you at the tables.
Sincerely,
Juanita J. Girand |
