We're taking reservations for our annual holiday party! We'll meet for a fabulous tri-tip lunch catered by Stonefire Grill and bridge at the Arcadia Community Center on December 15. The cost will be $30 per player (same as last year!) for the fabulous meal and great bridge. We'll be selling entries and taking reservations at the Pasadena Bridge Club. You're welcome to pay using cash or a credit card, and reservations will only be accepted up until December 5, so we can get the count of attendees to the caterer. Lunch will be at 12:00 Noon, with bridge to follow.

There's a fascinating phenomenon on the ridge of Mt. Wilson that's often visible from our club. An artist and scientist collaborated on the installation of a device using prisms and mirrors at the top of the 150 ft. solar observatory tower. The tower itself is always visible on the ridge, looking like a white matchstick to the right of the big grey TV towers.

The project is called Sunstar, and when it's active, the top of the tower glows brightly with a particular color of sunlight. I've pointed it out to players, thinking it was a reflection from the observatory itself. The fact that it's an art/science installation is quite delightful. If you Google for "mt wilson sunstar" you can find more information about it.

Meanwhile, it's been a great month of bridge at the Pasadena Bridge Club, with a couple of very well attended Unit Games, as well as the NAP District Final hosted at the club.

We had 12 tables on October 20. Winners N/S were a tie: Karmen Armoudjian with Jan Wickersham, tied with Yongkang Huang with Ming Hu. E/W was won by Mark Peters and Sin Orensztein.

On November 3 we had 11 tables, N/S winners: Caryn Mason and Patrick Finley. E/W winners: Paul Nason and Elliott Mazur.

Reservations are open for the November 17 and December 1 unit games. Contact Miriam Harrington, (626) 232-0558, miratpf@aol.com.

The Pasadena Bridge Club will be offering four single-topic bridge classes using lesson material from Eddie Kantar on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, December 11-12 and 18-19. New courses will start up in the first week of January, with Competitive Bidding and Play of the Deal.
