New Business – Dates and times were discussed regarding the
March 2025 Halifax Tournament. The Venue
will be Mount St. Vincent University.
Several suggestions were put forward:
1. Friday Tournament times could be 1:30 and then 6:00 pm; 2.Perhaps only have a two
day Tournament; 3. Maybe have a
two out of three sessions bridge day.
Gerry commented that evening sessions are not well attended. And the
last session would be late in ending. 4. Gerry also thought that if we have one
session on Friday, starting at 02:00, we may not have to pay the daily
rent. If we couldn’t get this reduced
rent, then we would have two sessions.
The Motion
– Gerry : will check with the
Mount. Can we have one session on Friday
for half the daily rent? If not, we will
have bridge on Saturday and Sunday only.
Seconded by John Olsen. Carried.
Bill
Halliday will look after getting the 40 x 4 bidding insert cards, without
having to buy the bidding boxes, if possible.
Much
discussion re Brian and Fran. All were
in favor of helping them in some way.
Glen will draft a letter for Club members, to present to ACBL.
No further
business, Liz moved the meeting adjourn.
