Yesterday Jan raised the possibility of holding the March 12 Unit Game
at the Pasadena Bridge Club. It would be the annual meeting, officer
elections, and a pizza party. Having Blaze Pizza downstairs makes it
kind of easy to bring in hot fresh pizza.
If this is something to be discussed, I need it to be considered
quickly. I have to write the unit column for the Bridge News today. Not
that many people read that, but it's certainly part of getting the word out.
FYI my whole mindset has changed since opening the bridge club. I didn't
know how things would turn out. I'd love to host any of the unit games.
Best regards,
Mojo

Correction to be introduction and election of board members.

Pasadena San Gabriel
*Important location change for the March 12 Unit Game*: This game will
include our annual meeting, with the introduction and election of new
board members. We also have a bridge game and lunch, and the Pasadena
Bridge Club location just above Blaze Pizza makes it easy to offer fresh
hot pizza before the game.
Make plans to come to the *Pasadena Bridge Club, 649 N Fair Oaks Ave.
#201, Pasadena*, for a pizza feast, snacks, and unit championship
competition.
There's not a lot of signage for the club, but it's easy to find when
you know where it is. The club is in the Fair Oaks Renaissance Center,
along with Vallarta Supermarket, Blaze Pizza, and a Starbucks coffee.
The club is just above Blaze Pizza. Park anywhere in the shopping
center, look for the (non-working) clock tower between Vallarta and
Blaze, and the door to the club is right there. Elevator access is easy.

The March 26 Unit Game will also be a *Sectional Tournament at Clubs
game*, with silver points available, and possible big awards joined with
other clubs. This game will be at the *Arcadia Bridge Center*, 333 N
Santa Anita Ave., Arcadia.
*Reservations are required* for all unit games! Please contact Miriam
Harrington, (626) 232-0558 or miratpf(a)aol.com.
The beginning bridge classes continue to bode well for the future of
bridge. I have 5-1/2 tables each in a Bridge Basics 1 class on Thursday
mornings, and Bridge Basics 2 - Competitive Bidding on Wednesday evenings.
*New course coming up* on Thursday evenings *Defense *starting on March
9. The course runs for eight Thursday evenings from 7-9 p.m., and costs
$130, which includes the text book. This is a fascinating and important
course that will change the way you look at a bridge hand! Sign up by
dropping at email to me at mojo(a)pasadenabridgeclub.com.

I'm posting this now in anticipation of a consensus, because I have a
deadline. If it needs to change, let's do it as soon as we can. :) If
there are any objections at all, we should postpone for another time.
PLEASE check for errors and omissions! What did I forget?
