Whakatane Bridge Club
Welcome To Whakatane Bridge Club
We are a friendly club situated in the eastern Bay of Plenty region. We offer four sessions of organised bridge at our clubrooms in Whakatane. Call 07 304-8844 for more info. Whakatane is affiliated to NZ Bridge – the official national body for bridge in NZ - so our members participate in local Interclub competitions and are eligible to compete in tournaments at other affiliated Clubs in NZ.
Announcements
Our AGM is on Sunday 17 September at 2pm. On the club whiteboard is a list of nominations for positions on the committee. Some of our committee members have been on for a number of years and are standing down so we need some fresh faces on the committee; this involves one meeting a month after play on the 2nd Friday of the month. We would love you to join us ; the committee will be providing a drink and snacks.
Next Tuesday 5 September we have been invited for our annual visit to play at the Kawerau Bridge Club. They put on a wonderful supper and are great hosts. There is a list on the whiteboard for those wanting to go to Kawerau-this helps with carpooling too. Kawerau needs to know numbers by next Monday so they can deal the boards. Play is at Mountain View Rest Home 192 River Road, Kawerau. Play begins at 7 so we’ll need to get away soon after 6 in order to be seated at 6.45 pm.
Our Spring Fling tournament will be on Sunday September 24 starting with shared lunch at 12 and play getting underway at 1pm. This is a fun day😎 We are extending an invitation to Kawerau and Opotiki to join in the fun.
Entry is $15
