Information for Unit 559 Clubs
Unit Game and Election Party
This Sunday is our March unit game, and it is also our annual Election Party. Awards for outstanding players in
each rank, for their achievements last year, will be presented. We will be electing six of twelve board members
to serve on the unit board, so your attendance is needed. There will be a 499er side game for players who qualify,
and they will play the same hands as played in the Open Pairs. Hand records will be available after the game.
STaC Games
Silver points and larger awards! The district holds Sectional Tournaments at Clubs
several times a year, and the next one is on Monday, March 2nd. Both the Monday afternoon and evening game will
be participating. The card fees are $10.00, and because the game is scored across the Los Angeles area, the
awards are larger. The Wednesday morning game is also a STaC game.
Pasadena-San Gabriel Unit 559
Our unit is one of nine in District 23 and we are sanctioned by the American Contract Bridge League.
We have an elected board of 12 members that meets monthly and is responsible for unit games and the annual John
Waken sectional. There are two clubs in our unit - The San Marino Bridge Club and the Arcadia Bridge Center.
Unit Game
Our next Unit game will be our Election Party, Sunday, March 1.
Every spring we elect six of the 12 members on our unit board at our election party, and we also present awards to our
outstanding players.
We have a unit game generally on the first Sunday of each month. The card fees are $10.00 and students may play
free. The game has three flights, A, B and C. There is also a separate section for 499ers for thos players
who prefer to play there.
