As most Landings Bridge Club members are aware, the club has followed its normal procedure of no games over the summer. The newly elected Board of Sue Wotton, Bill Rush, Pam Dahlberg, Barb Coneys, Jerry Poissant, and Bill Ferris have agreed that we should have the same starting time in 2025-26 as the previous year—every Monday at 9 a.m. in the Garden Room of the Helm Club. That doesn’t mean that the regular game time will never change. But after informal discussion over the summer the Board is happy with keeping the hour and day the same as this past year.
Also, over the summer many of us have played online BBO games near summer homes or at the Southeast Carolina Club of Clubs. We have a financial partnership with Southeast Carolina in which they give us a slight cut of the $6 fee players are charged for each session.
Our first day of next season will be the second Monday in October, October 13, 2025, so plan to play in the Southwest Regional at the Sanibel Inner Harbour Marriott in the fall (https://district9acbl.org/sanibel/) and continue the progress you have made towards Various Life Master levels and other awards! As that tournament ends, we will begin our new season the very next Monday at the Helm Club.
Finally, on a sad note, the Club sends our condolences to Sue Wotton, our long-time Treasurer, on the passing of her husband, Rick. Rick would often join members at lunch after the match and was a very affable lunch companion and a friend of everyone at the table. He will be missed by all.
