The DCA is excited to welcome Tom Hunter of Come Play Bridge as our new duplicate bridge director. Our Monday game will now be a drop-in play, $13 open game, without a DCA membership requirement, to help players obtain more master points. Tom will be using hands from The Common Game, so hand records will be available. Games will be stratified, and Tom will also be available both before and after the game for questions and discussion. This challenging game is held in the Garden Wing every Monday, starting from September 11, at 12:30pm from September until May.
