Congratulations to Art Lowen and David Birnbaum for First Place in NAP Flight A!
All local bridge players are invited to attend a seminar taught by Barbara Seagram on Wednesday, December 6th at the Vanderbilt Bridge Club of Nashville. The seminar will be from 9:30 to 11:30 AM.
Barbara Seagram is internationally famous as a teacher and writer. She is the co-author of numerous books, including the very popular "25 Ways" series, that she co-authored with David Bird and other top bridge writers and players.
Barbara's program will be “To Ruff, To Win or to Duck - Be a Feared Opponent and Improve your Declarer Play”. The seminar is targeted at new players and intermediates but would be useful to anyone wishing a refresh. Barbara’s programs are always entertaining and will be enjoyed by players at any level. Barbara is a big believer in face-to-face play and has been working hard to help “brick and mortar” clubs post pandemic. Barbara has offered her time and is donating the class proceeds to the VBC for its education program and new player initiatives. To be included in Barbara’s programs is an honor, and we encourage everyone to participate in this “win-win” situation. All attendees will receive a box lunch and a free play for the afternoon game. Our game will start at Noon. Both Open and Limited games will be held as attendance permits.
When: December 6, 2023 at 9:30am. Lunch and the game will follow at noon.
Where: Vanderbilt Bridge Club, 85 White Bridge Road, Nashville, TN 37205
Cost and Registration: $60 per person
