Notice of games playing Face to Face

Bob Gaudet runs a Newcomer Game on Thursday mornings from 9:30 to 11:30 am. He starts with a 20-minute mini-lesson and then plays roughly 9 hands. Masterpoints are awarded. Since this is an educational opportunity, you can use your notes, and even ask questions when you get "stuck". Partners are always available.
FFBC also offers Drop-In Bridge: on Tuesday evenings, 6:30 – 9:30 PM. All skill levels are invited to come and play bridge with some very friendly and welcoming players.
You will make some new friends and enjoy a relaxing evening.
The cost is $10.00 for a Duplicate Bridge Game (18-24 boards).
Coffee and snacks are provided at the duplicate games.
Where: We play in the lower level of St Camillus Church, 1175 Concord Turnpike (Route 2) in Arlington MA. Please don't park in the two rows closest to the church. There is a handicap-accessible entrance with an elevator on the Dow Avenue side of the church.
Fees: Games cost $10.
