    Attention! Swiss Mixer on January 4

    We have a new format for the Swiss Team game. Currently it is referred to as a Swiss Mixer. What’s that, you ask? It is a combination of a Swiss Team and an opportunity for some possible mentoring in a fun and supportive environment.

    Here are the details.

    1. C players will sign up with another regular C partner just like you do when you play in the back room at the Unit games.
    2. A players and B players will also sign up as pairs with your regular partners.
    3. 4-person teams will then be created so that each team will have one A pair and one C pair.
    4. B players will be assigned a team, so don’t worry. You will have a seat at the table! You may be N/S or E/W, depending on how many sign up.

    If there is time between the sessions, players will have the opportunity to ask questions and make comments.

    Date: Saturday, January 4

    Time: Play begins at 9:30. Be there around 9:00 so you can get together with your team.

    Where to sit: The A players will all sit N/S. The C players will all sit E/W. B players will sit where Don tells them to. (Hee hee)

    PLEASE SIGN UP AND LET THE FUN BEGIN!

    Swiss Teams Rescheduled for Saturday, December 14

    Swiss teams will be Saturday, December 14th. Lots of folks responded that they would be able to play on that date so we will see if we can make it work.

    Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. We are truly grateful and thankful to be part of such a caring and loving and, most of all, fun group of folks.
