BRIDGE, Fun With Friends and Learning

 

“BRIDGE, Fun With Friends and Learning” is a recent addition to the branch.  The gatherings are open to members, who may attend with guests or prospective members.  The Bridge group generally meets on the 2nd Monday of each month at a group member’s home. 

 

Ron Fogel, husband of member Phyllis Fogel, will lead the group and provide instruction preceding the play.  Ron and Phyllis are both Silver Life Masters of the ACBL (American Contract Bridge League) and are well-known bridge players in the Chicagoland area.  They play in several tournaments a year as well as in local bridge clubs in the area.  Ron is also an ACBL accredited teacher and has taught at the College of  DuPage Older Adult Institute for more than ten years.

 

Each Bridge evening will begin with a short lesson on various aspects of the game.  The Fogels will be available to answer questions during the bidding and play of the hand.  The emphasis will be on having fun with several different partners during the evening. 

 

We'll have a great time learning and playing bridge!
