Partners Tuesday Night Bridge
Pres. Larry Parks, VP Janelle Parks, Sec. Judy Bjorling 520-818-1296 Tue., 6 PM, Desert Oasis/Ocotillo
No matter the depth of your bridge knowledge, you’ll enjoy Tuesday Night Bridge. Sure, we have some bridge sharks, but mostly they’re not dangerous to the average player. Like whale sharks, some partners have a big presence, win lots, bid and make occasional grand slams with their mug shots circulated. They’re not harmful at all. Some are even like nurse sharks, and they’ll help you if you ask about a challenging situation. Bring a partner and your dollars and immerse yourself. You’ll be glad you did. Arrive by 5:45 PM to secure your place in the water.
