Learn Bridge in a Day! Saturday, November 9 -- 10 am to 3 pm at the

greatest card game? Wes Seitz is hosting another
one-day lesson that includes a play-as-you-learn introduction to
bridge, lunch, study materials and a book -- all for $20.
The workshop is designed for newcomers to the game, but it's
also open to current players who would like a beginner-oriented
review of the basics. More information is here.
