SOCIAL & DINING Book Club Upcoming Books

Ladies Bridge Association AAC Ladies Bridge Association hosted our September couples bridge a week later on Friday the 10th due to the holiday. The couples bridge is the first Friday of each month. Sandra Evans, Couples Events chairperson, and her husband Tom were great organizers for the event. A dinner buffet was immediately following bridge play in the Oakmont Room. The Marathon matches began in August. Each team is responsible for scheduling their matches each month with winners determined the following month. The format is duplicate bridge so all teams play the same cards. The winners for August were North/South 1st place Susan Thigpen and Carole Hayes; East/West 1st place Connie Kimsey and Emma Deavours. There are 14 teams participating each month continuing into April 2022. We are delighted to continue our weekly SOCIAL BRIDGE on Wednesdays in the Dot Kirby card room at 3:00 PM. DUPLICATE BRIDGE will continue as soon as our Bridge Director returns. We generally have 4 to 6 tables with room for more. Beachie Hall, Social Bridge coordinator, sends weekly invitations to all members of the AAC Ladies Bridge club members each week. After play, most players have enjoyed dinner at 6:30 PM in the Troon Grill, some joined by their spouses/significant others. The staff in the grill have been great to assist our group with reservations to accommodate our diners. If you are interested in joining our bridge association, please contact M.J. Olsen at mjolsen225@gmail.com or by phone #770-595-8197. We are always looking for new players. Registration applications are located in the Ladies Locker Room bulletin board.
