LONDON BRIDGE CENTRE

Seven tables of Open Game players and 2.5 tables of Practice & Play players had a great afternoon of bridge and a fun "recycled gift" exchange.  Thank you to everyone who came out to support the club, those who baked treats and set up for the gift exchange, Bruce Moor for directing and Judi and Gord Waters for running the Practice and Play section.  Check out photos of the event here.

Our current in-person schedule:  

Who gets the cookies, the pop, the coffee, and the paper towels?  Who changes the lights? Who empties the garbage? Our Volunteers do all of the above and much more. The LBC is a successful bridge club because of our Volunteers. Take a look at our COMMITTEES AND VOLUNTEER page and let's give them our thanks for all that they contribute to the London Bridge Centre.

Practice and Play is an opportunity to play bridge for those new to the game or for those who would like to brush up on their bridge skills. This is a casual bridge session with expert guidance provided by Peter Tuttle, Adele Woolfe, Reg Young, and other volunteers. Ask questions about your bidding, your play, and of course "What could I have done better?"

This session runs from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. No pre-registration is required. Feel free to come on your own, with a partner, or even with a table of four.
