To see what it's like to visit an NABC, I shot a little two-minute walkthrough on Saturday: https://youtu.be/HbHg4KDrUXY Last night was also the award dinner for the ACBL Goodwill Committee, and it's written up in today's tournament Daily Bulletin: https://cdn.acbl.org/nabc/2023/02/bulletins/db5.pdf To my right in the photo is Bronia Jenkins, the ACBL's rock star new executive director. I even got to play bridge all day Wednesday with Brenda Egeland who created RSVPBridge. It was a chance to lobby for some new features. We also had a great time playing bridge! New courses week! This is the week we start *Defense*, *Two Over One Game Force*, and *Competitive Bidding* courses. They're dynamite courses each. With all of our courses you are always welcome to /try the first class with no obligation/. If you're not sure it's for you, give it a try and see! See the full schedule and enrollment links here: https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/available_courses Saturday Workshop and Game The subject this Saturday is "Corrective vs. Forward Going bids." If it sounds a little obscure, don't worry! It's a common misunderstanding at the table, and we can help clear things up. Saturday at 1:00 PM, followed by a 12-board game for 299ers. Coming Up ... Our next /Bridge Basics 1 - Introduction/ course will also be in the PCC Extension catalog. It will be on Thursday evenings starting August 31. Save the date! Thanks so much to Paula Olivares and Zachary Vedro for covering the games and classes last week! Best regards, Mojo, Jane, Zachary
