Duplicate bridge is back

The first in-person duplicate bridge game in 15 months will be held Friday, June 18, in Clubhouse 1 beginning at 12 noon. Players are urged to make reservations as soon as possible with Sharon Beran at (562) 308-7838 or hbsharonb@ gmail.com.

The Leisure World Duplicate Bridge Club and Burning Tree Duplicate Bridge Club have merged and will play two games per week. The director for the Monday games will be Mike Ullman, and on Friday afternoons, it’s Emma Trepinski. Reservations are required.

Players are asked to arrive by 11:30 a.m. on the day of their reservations. Game fees are $4 for LW residents and $5 for invited guests.

There will be no snacks or beverages provided for the first few weeks, however, players may bring their own. Sharing is not currently allowed.

Masks are required to enter the clubhouse, and players’ temperatures will be taken using a notouch tester at the sign-in table.

The GRF Board has clarified the ruling that clubs cannot compel members to have been vaccinated in order to play.

For further information, call Ted Wieber at (562) 596-8661.
