Bridge News
Ladies Marathon Bridge
Attention All Bridge Players! We have many new members since we shut down a year ago with COVID 10, some of whom are bridge players of all levels. There are about 85 players, men and women, currently playing bridge in NOP groups and marathons. I know there are bridge players out there who are not yet in
a group or marathon. I’d even be interested in starting a Men’s Marathon . . . Act 2 has one and so does Pinehurst Country Club. If you are interested in playing bridge call Phyllis Clark at 215-8730 or email ([email protected]).
I am sure there are couples groups who play that are not currently supported by NOP. It might be to your advantage to send me your membership list to see if your group can benefit from Neighbor’s
support. Grandslammers – Thanks to COVID 19 the ladies’ marathons have been on hold for more than a year.
Finally, Grandslammer LXVII and LXVIII have begun to play again. I have four teams signed up for Grandslammer LXIX, so those of you who are interested in starting a
marathon this spring need to sign up now! Hostesses, please remember to schedule your games as early as possible giving your opponents several
options. Everyone has busy schedules, so set up your game at least a month in advance. Thank you. Need a Partner? Give Phyllis a call at 215-8730 or email her at [email protected]. She will try to hook you up with other players who are looking for a partner. Have you considered playing in another
marathon with a different partner? Maybe a new member? Another friend? Or, someone who’s looking for a partner?
If you are interested in playing bridge, please contact me at 910-215-8730.

Couples Marathon Bridge
A new Couples Marathon has begun! Sign up to join the next one.
Games are scheduled so that you play with a different couple once a month for seven (7) months. If you enjoy bridge, this is a great way to meet new couples as well as spend an evening with friends. To sign up, send a check for $15/couple, made payable to Neighbors of Pinehurst, to Lynne Moore, 32 Lasswade
Drive, Pinehurst, NC, 28374. Checks may be mailed or dropped in the basket on Lynne’s porch. If there are any questions, call Lynne at 235-3929 or email her at [email protected].
How Marathon Bridge Works – Each Marathon consists of seven months of scheduled play with a different couple each month. There are no games scheduled in December. Couples may schedule play at their convenience during the eight-month period. Signups are on a first-come-first-served basis. When a group
fills up, new signups are placed on a waiting list until there are eight teams to form a new group. This procedure continues throughout the year. So, if you are finishing one marathon and wish to continue or sign up for an additional one send in your check. For more information contact Lynne.
