The ACBL has announced some new special events for the coming year. It's
safe to say that a few more folks are trying to stay out of the path of
the latest variant, so here are a few last special online events. Let's
hope that this is just about the end of such things!
*January 6-9*: Junior Fund games, 2x regular club points, extra $1 per entry
*January 17 - 23*: Silver Linings Week, 2x regular club points, all
silver, extra $1 per entry
*February 12-13*: Valentine's Weekend, 2x regular club points, 50% red
50% black, no extra charge!
*February 21-27*: Educational Foundation Week, 2x regular club points,
black points, extra $1 per entry
Also of note: Currently online virtual club games (vacb) pay 125% of
regular club games. That multiplier will drop to 100% after the New
Year's weekend, on January 3.
Finally, I'll be turning the day-to-day management of the "Unit 556 +
Pasadena Pomona Downey" virtual bridge club back over to Paula Olivares
as of the first of the year. It's been a pleasure, and I'll still be
here directing some games and setting up new classes both online and
in-person in the coming year.
Best regards,
Mojo

Merry Christmas everyone!
We're going to hold an Open Pairs game tomorrow afternoon at 12:15. If
you'd like to play some bridge, come on and join in! I have a list below
of the players from last week, but I'm taking it with a grain of salt.
Play if you can, and if you can't make it this week, I'll assume you're
having a splendid Christmas Eve somewhere. :)
