We had a fabulous 5 table 9 round, 3 boards a round Howell movement.  The pair that came in first was a last minute Hookup- Colleen Bakker and Carolyn Salmon!  with a 60.65% score, followed by a tie by Bill and Jack and Ann and Paul with a 59.72%% score. and close behind were Penny and Rick!  The top 5 pairs were jockeying for supremacy the whole afternoon.  Who knows what would happen with another 3 boards?

Congatulations to you all.  It was a tough fight the whole day even for 5th, 6th 7th and 10th!

we had a lovely day.  no Rain, No noise, no interferences!  thank everyone for the lovely calm afternoon!

We had two and a half tables at the Advanced Beginners' lesson where we discussed opening leads against suits and NT.  We had 5.5 tables at the beginner's lesson where we discussed opening one of a suit and responding to opening one of a suit.  One pair had to leave, so we had 5 full tables in our pupil game.

The Cullys were the winners with a huge 68.06%!  Second place went to Wynne and Betty with a very nice 56.25%.  Close behind in third was the John Safford and Martha R pair with 54.86%.  I will be here next week, but Suzanne will be taking the beginners class on the day after Labor Day as I am off to play in a regional for that week.

This Saturday will be the "Boot Camp" of 27 boards to discuss or until 4 PM, whichever comes first.  It starts at 10AM and has a fee of $15.  No need to sign up in advance, just show up with $15 and you can participate.
