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. More is at https://pasadenabridgeclub.com/location/
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@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@pasadenabridgeclub.com.
