REPORTS
Grounds/House – John reported that Don

be solving some of our leak problems.
OLD BUSINESS – John stated
that Pat Heading has contacted a hotel and the Bridge Bulletin for our
tournament in September. Barbara King
has donated an automatic pencil sharpener to the club.
NEW BUSINESS – Bob Renuart
asked if we send information on our 72% games to the Sunshine News. June said some regulations are involved and
need to be met but to please bring to her attention anyone with a game in that
category.
Bob Renuart asked if the
Swiss Team games could be handicapped especially to help C players. June said a game cannot be handicapped and
stratified at the same time. It has to
be one or the other. An ideal game would
be to have enough teams to have a C section only and an A/B section only. Barbara suggested that perhaps a limited
lunch menu could also be provided at a minimal cost to stimulate attendance. June will evaluate the pros/cons of
stratification versus handicapping for the next Swiss Game on August 11th.
Bob Renuart also said that
Spike and Linda would like to use our facility for Bridge Lessons. Linda would have lessons for the 0 to 200
points bracket and spike for the intermediate level. The Board approved the use of the facility
for this purpose on Thursday, Friday and Saturday mornings. June requested they coordinate through
her. The Board stated that the
instructors are to bring their own refreshments or reimburse the club for use
of club refreshments. Bob will relay
this information to Spike and Linda.
Bob also asked if we would
want to have notable players come to the club and give lectures. Expenses were discussed and the Board decided
it may be too expensive of a venture at this time.
