Good morning Board,
We will have a Board meeting on Monday September 11th at 7 PM. I will send the Zoom link that day so it does not get lost. Attached is the agenda and minutes. I hopefully will have the financials before then as well.

Pasadena San Gabrielt Unit
Morris "Mojo" Jones
August is usually a quiet month at the bridge clubs, but it's been busy
for me! We had three special games at the Pasadena Bridge Club on
Wednesday mornings: two NAP Qualifiers, and one STaC game. Classes are
going great, and a new session of /Bridge Basics 1 - Introduction/
started on August 31.
When tropical storm Hilary passed through, we decided to postpone the
August 20 Unit Game to August 27. The delay allowed us to turn the game
into a Western Conference STaC game. That was truly a silver lining!
While I was in Florida for my dad's 90th birthday, Paula Olivares was
kind enough to cover the Unit Game on August 6. We had eight tables,
with winners:
* N/S Jeanette Deverian, Joan Mesias
* E/W Karen Arase, Gitta Earll
For the delayed August 27 STaC game at the Arcadia Bridge Center we had
11 tables. Winners were:
* N/S Joan Mesias, Jeanette Deverian (again!)
* E/W Amr Elghamry, Dominique Moore (72.81% game!)
Normally you would think a 72% game would be enough to win the event
conference wide, but no! It was only good enough for 2nd place, losing
to a well-known pair from the Beverly Hills Bridge Club. Still Amr and
Dominique added 10.38 silver points to their considerable stash.
Unit Games for September will be held at the Pasadena Bridge Club on
September 3, and the Arcadia Bridge Center on September 17. For
reservations contact me or Miriam Harrington at (626) 232-0558,
miratpf(a)aol.com.
The October Unit Games may need a shift in schedule, since the first
Sunday, October 1, the Pasadena Bridge Club will be taken over by the
District 23 North American Pairs Final tournament. Check the unit
website http://www.acblunit559.com/ or the Pasadena Bridge Club site
https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/ for updates.
Congratulations to our members reaching new ranks!
New Junior Master Suzanne Gati
New Club Master Derald Brackman
And special congratulations to newly minted Life Masters Prasad Upasani
and Hanna Zhuang.

I would like to postpone the game to next Sunday at 12:30 (will need to confirm with Diane).
Mojo can direct and can possibly be a STAC game
I need board approval so please respond asap if you can!
