Dear Board,
MoJo will be sending out a link for the 7PM Board meeting on Monday evening. I hope that you can all attend as we have some important business to attend to .
Miriam, if you can get me the financials before Monday, I can send them out. Attached are the minutes from the last meeting and the agenda for Monday evening.
Many thanks to you all for your service to the Unit.
Lisa

Tom, please add at the bottom:
By the way, if you'd like to be included in the Unit 559 online roster, you can still opt in! Check at the bridge clubs for a form, or send an email to Kathy Cresto mysuki(a)att.net.

Please add language regarding the Option In. I think some people are thinking that since the deadline has passed, they can't add their information.

It was an eventful March! The big news was that the Arcadia Bridge Club is closing after 55 years of dedication to bridge. I know it's especially disappointing for players to our east out I-210. Besides the games at the Pasadena Bridge Club (Fair Oaks & Orange Grove) there are two morning games in Glendora. (See Tom Lill's column elsewhere here!)
April will be a transition month, with Diane continuing to hold games on Friday and Saturday. The Pasadena Bridge Club has started up games on Monday and Tuesday, with plans to open Friday and Saturday games in May.
Our twice-monthly Unit Games will be held at the Pasadena Bridge Club. For months through June, at least, games will be on the first and third Sunday afternoons at 12:30. Unit games this month are April 7 and 21. Make your reservations with Miriam Harrington, (626) 232-0558 or miratpf(a)aol.com.
Winners for March Unit Games:
March 3 (15 tables!) N/S: Jeanette Deverian - Joan Mesias, E/W Paul Nason - Elliott Mazur
March 17 (10.5 tables) N/S: Paul Nason - Diana Borgatti, E/W George Want - Frank Shih
Congratulations to new rank changes for March:
Junior Masters: Leslie Klein, Fred Register
Regional Master: Robert Jennings
Ruby Life Master: S K Leech

I no longer am suggesting that the board become involved in the management of a club to replace the Bridge Center, but I want to remind all of you that one of the main purpose of the board is to promote bridge, and specifically item C in the bylaws:
C. To promote the development and organization of affiliated clubs within the Unit.
If Fredy can find a way to keep the Bridge Center open, the unit board should strive to help him. One way to do that is with a zero interest loan to help him with tables, chairs, etc.

I’ve played bridge more than half my life. The lesser half I wasted.
I strongly disagree! There are a lot of people that relay on this area for their bridge play for a lot of reasons.

I’m feeling like one club is sufficient. I’d like to see the Pasadena club thrive as Diane is retiring.

Hi, friends,
I spoke to Diane, and she is not interested in selling the club, but will be closing the doors. She would like to sell the tables, etc. I have talked to Fredy Minter and he is interested in reopening the Bridge Center. If Fredy can secure the same location at a reasonable rent I would like to propose that the board buy the tables, etc and then give them to Fredy at a zero percent loan. I am trying to help keep the Bridge Center open…. We have all played there and met many of our friends there. I hope you agree that it would be a shame to lose it if we can keep it. Would one of you, as a board member, introduce this as topic of board discussion? Time is growing short!

Good morning Roy and thank you for reaching out to me. Yes I’m interested but have a lot of questions. Where would the location be? Still at the same place? What are the circumstances that happened with the parking and everything if it is still gonna be at the same place. How much is rent, and what other stipulations are there?
