Who Would Have Guessed?

Attracting new bridge players is a goal of all of our clubs, but finding the best time to offer lessons is always a challenge.

This September, the Twin Cities Bridge Center offered beginning bridge classes at what seemed a novel time: 4PM to 6:30PM on Wednesdays. The response exceeded expectations! Teri Blu has about 30 people taking the classes. They are primarily working-age adults who like the time because they can leave work early, come to bridge, then go home for dinner.

Once they finish the lessons, Teri hopes to start a 4PM, 18 board duplicate game for players with fewer than 50 master points.
