Hi, all,
If we are going to continue sending unit-wide emails, we need to renew the funds in our account with the ACBL. The more credits we purchase the bigger the discount, but I think $100 will last us a long time.
Can I please get a vote, and if everyone agrees I will purchase the credits and ask Miriam for reimbursement.
Below is the website's purchase page, and you can see we are getting low.

Hi,
I have sent an invitation to our Holiday party to all the members in district 23. There were more than 2000 members, but I doubt they will all show up. (And I did send the correct date!) I didn’t check, but an email this large is probably about $60, so at some point the board will need to put some more money in the account.

I’ve played bridge more than half my life. The lesser half I wasted.
Thanks so much for the email Roy! I think people will figure out that
our unit party is on the 11th, not the 6th. :)
I don't think it's worth sending a correction.

Dunno how accurate the information is, but Mark Hartzell sez that our Holiday party could also be part of another Royal STaC, which starts on December 5.
Can we have a discussion or vote on being included? I vote yes, let’s /e included.

Darn…. I just updated our website and once again we have lost members. I cannot remember the year, perhaps 10 or more, but I recall that we once had almost 800 members in our unit. The latest number is 357. Sigh.
Mojo, can you please add Mike Marcucci to this mailing list? As our Unit Historian I believe he should be included. nstarmgm(a)att.net

Pasadena San Gabriel Unit
*Important schedule change for the November Unit Games!*
We wanted to take advantage of the fall STaC tournament running Oct. 31
through Nov. 6, so we're moving the Sunday Unit Games to *November 6 and
20 *this month. Especially for these games, be sure to reserve your seat
with Miriam Harrington before the game! Our space is limited. Call
Miriam at (626) 232-0558.
*Save the date!*
Our unit is reviving the traditional Holiday Party and bridge game on
*December 11*. We'll have lunch, and a great bridge game at the Arcadia
Community Center. We're happy to welcome visitors from anywhere in
District 23.
Winners in October ... well how about that, the same pairs won both games:
October 9 AND October 23:
* N/S: Peter Szecsi, Amr Elghamry
* E/W: Arthur and Dominique Moore
Our next round of beginning bridge classes will be starting after the
first of the year. They'll be on Wednesday evenings, starting January
11, offered through PCC Extension, and taught at Arcadia High School.
Keep it in mind for friends and family who might like to learn our game.
Lots of players climbing the rank ladders this month!
New Club Masters:
* Linda Carter
* Beth Hollander
* Stuart Soldate
New Bronze Life Master:
* Nancy Nakanishi
New Gold Life Master:
* Marilyn Kogan
Congratulations all!
Unit 559 currently has 359 active members. Wouldn't that be a fun group
for a holiday party! Make your plans now. :)

Hi, everyone,
I just got this from Kathy Cresto, and I have a concern… every month I seem to have an error with the unit game dates, and it’s a little embarrassing. Before we added a second game each month it was very easy - always the first Sunday of the month, unless something special was happening.
So… whoever is in charge of our schedule, can you please help me out?
Also, can someone confirm Kathy’s request? Should the dates be changed that she is requesting?
Roy
