Thank you to all of you who attended our AGM on Monday night, both in person and on Zoom and to those who sent their apologies. It was lovely to see you all and congratulations to all the prize winners.
The following motion was resoundingly passed at the meeting and I quote
Congratulations to all our winners at this year's Prize Giving! It was wonderful to see such a good turn out both face-to-face and virtually. I have attached the full list of award winners for your perusal.
Ian Moore has kindly agreed to take on the Club Captain role for 2022. Ian and Pam joined our club this year after moving to Cambridge from Rotorua. Ian brings a wealth of bridge experience and a cheerful and positive outlook. We will make sure that those of you who have not met Ian will meet him early next year. I feel very confident to be passing the reigns on to Ian!
This coming Wednesday 8th will be the penultimate session of a most unusual year. It is the second of three nights of the Christmas Individuals - on RealBridge. Not many chances to give it a go are left in this year. We have an eye on offering some RealBridge Holiday sessions open to all comers. Watch this space!
Here is the link for Wednesday next
A reminder that our AGM and prize-giving is to be held at the club rooms next Monday 6th December with a start time of 7pm.
The AGM is to be held on 6th December 2021 at 7pm on Zoom but the prize giving will be next year – possibly as a “start” to the year.
There are some committee members who are not standing again for the 2022 year. All members have the right to nominate a member to the committee should they wish to do so.
Subscriptions and table money will remain the same in 2022.
On Friday night we hosted a RealBridge session in the New Zealand Wide Babich Event. Michael directed and was then ably assisted by Anna to produce the results for the country. A great night was enjoyed by our 7 tables of keen attendees.
Congratulations to Clare Coles and Kevin Whyte who came 25th out of 750 pairs! What a super result!
We had 3 other pairs in the top 200. Pam and Ian Moore at 146th, Kate and Gwyn in 151st place and Vicki and Liz sneaking in there in 193rd place.
RealBridge continued this week with keen players turning up to all 4 sessions. It's not too late to join in! We will soon be emailing and posting the links to the sessions for next week. Come along even if it's your first time! We will look after you.
Michael has been instrumental in guiding Cambridge Bridge Club into an opportunity to play online bridge. He has set us up to be able to play all our usual sessions at home with less than half a dozen clicks! In the last 10 days he enabled us to play 6 club sessions and directed us through them, allowing us to see and chat with our club mates after such an extensive break. Michael is now in the process of helping to support a few more directors to lighten his load. Thank you Mike for all the hours you have put into this venture.
