Angela, the whole purpose of the board is to promote bridge any way that will help!
Yes, the board should lobby for and help whenever possible.  I do agree that subsidizing is not feasible, but a loan is not subsidizing.

I’ve played bridge more than half my life.  The lesser half I wasted.

I’m sure they do, but the Board shouldn’t lobby for

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!
