BBO is acting slow and funny today. Hope everybody registers early.
Be patient, noon is their heaviest volume time.
If the game disappears, look for it to reappear in a few minutes.

>From this month's Unit556 column of the Bridge News--
Meet Our Virtual Club Directors: This month we are featuring our Club
Manager and backup director, Paula Olivares. Originally from Boston, Paula
began playing bridge at home as her father’s partner, while her mother took
a break and served desert and coffee. She joined the high school bridge
club, playing Friday evenings at a different students’ homes. In college
November 2020 page 11 (University of Texas at El Paso), she enjoyed playing
bridge between classes in the Student Union.
After receiving her B.A. and M.S. in mathematics, Paula spent the next 30
years in Southern California raising four children while pursuing a career
with Pacific Bell/ATT and teaching Math part-time at College of the
Canyons. A few years before retirement she rekindled her interest in bridge
and signed up for Rand Pinsky’s Beginning Bridge series in 1999, quickly
becoming addicted to duplicate bridge.
After retiring in 2002 Paula became a certified director, bridge teacher
and life master. In 2007 she moved to Rosarito Beach, Mexico where she
taught bridge classes, helped two clubs become sanctioned ACBL clubs, and
coached 5 players to become directors. She also began teaching and
directing bridge on cruise ships doing 26 cruises over the next 12 years on
Princess, Royal Caribbean, Cunard, Holland American, Azamara and Seabourn
cruise lines. Back to Valencia in 2011, Paula continued teaching bridge in
her home and started the Friendly Bridge Club in 2012 as a place for her
students to play together.
