Charity Bridge Challenge
The Charity Bridge Challenge begins in September. This is a social event for all levels of bridge expertise and is the ultimate in ‘Kitchen Table Bridge’. A fee of $20 per person is collected with the registration and will be donated to charity. You must sign up with a partner. Each partnership will be scheduled an opponent for each month of September, October, January, February, March and April. Just set up your own date and time. All matches must be completed by May 1st. Most importantly, have fun and enjoy the company. In May a Charity Bridge Luncheon is held and everyone who wishes to play some bridge is invited to attend.

Mah Jongg
Mah Jongg is a Chinese game played with tiles that are grouped into suits similar to cards. The idea is to be the first to make a pre-determined hand. Four players play at a time. We play the American version of the game. Our group (12 members) meets every Friday morning throughout the year at a member’s house. At present we have no openings to join our group and unfortunately, we do not have a substitute list as we are a large group. Anyone who has expressed an interest in learning the game will be contacted in October to discuss lessons as well as the possibility of forming a new group.
