Founders Duplicate Bridge
Friday Duplicate Bridge
Our Bridge Club has grown. Lately we have been able to play
the Mitchell movement with five full tables. We welcome returning
players Toshi Yasutake and Janis Musante as well as new members
Susie Anson, Kannan Dan, Carrie McBride, and Jeannie Murrell. All
are experienced bridge players and a great asset to our club.
We encourage intermediate bridge players to join us. Single players
can contact our president, Phyllis Skall to arrange for a partner by
calling (858) 405-2684 or emailing pskall13@yahoo.com. We play
every Tuesday night at 6 pm in the Mykonos Room. The membership
fee is waived for your first game. Table fees are only $2. Proceeds are
distributed to the top winning pairs. We are not an ACBL sanctioned
club, but adhere to ACBL principles and score with ACBL software.
The top winners for August are:
8/03/21 Howell Ted Mitchell / Andy Boyer
8/10/21 Howell Heidi Kuhn / Irma Maston
8/17/21 Mitchell Heidi Kuhn / Irma Maston NS

8/31/21 Mitchell Benno Rayhrer / Gisela Rayhrer N/S
Sy Singer / Arline Kennedy E/W
Top score for the month: 73.88% Sy Singer / Arline Kennedy
We offer a Duplicate Bridge game that combines the superior scoring of Duplicate Bridge,
but also has the friendlier and non-aggressive attitude of home style Rubber Bridge. With
Duplicate Bridge, your true opponents are the pairs that hold the same cards as you would,
rather than your opponents at the table. We are not an ACBL game and for that, we not only
offer an extremely reasonable game price of just $2, but also give cash awards to the winners.
If you are interested, please call John Gates at (760) 295-5885, the president of this bridge
club, to see if this type of game might meet your expectations. We are relatively small and
have anywhere from five to eight tables. The games are at 1 pm on the second, fourth, and
fifth Fridays of the month in Mykonos. You do not have to join this club to play your first
game; however, if you decide to join, the annual dues are $6.
