The regular Pro-Am game is this Thursday. For a Pro-Am game, one or both partners have less than 750MPs. If you need a partner for the game or if you are available as a "Pro" please contact us at info@santacruzbridge.org. Foundation Charity Game - Tuesday, December 17th Most years we run a charity game for our very own Santa Cruz Bridge Education Foundation. Covid got in the way for a couple of years. We're now doing it again, just in time for the giving season. Next Tuesday's 10A game is dedicated to the foundation. All monies collected will go to the foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organized to provide the benefits of learning and playing bridge to the people of Santa Cruz County and the greater Monterey Bay area. This year the foundation has supported the Wednesday Newcomer's game, which has been so successful it has grown into a regular, twice-a-month 49er game. Come on Tuesday if you can or bring cash / check to the bridge center next time you are there or send a check to the Santa Cruz Bridge Center 2450 17th Avenue, Suite 200 Santa Cruz,CA 95062 made out to the Santa Cruz Bridge Education Foundation. A donation of $25 is suggested, but anything you can give will help and be appreciated. 2025 - 2026 Board of Directors Every year a portion of the Unit 550 Board of Directors is elected for a two-year term. Three members have come forward for the 2025-2026 BOD:
Five current board members have agreed to run for another two year term:
Two current board members continue on the board in the second year of their term:
The Board and the membership recognizes and applauds Carol Avenmarg, David Harken, Ken Gamble and Steve Smith outgoing board members. Over several years, their work and contributions to the SCBC have guided us throughout the recovery from the pandemic to a position that is the envy of many clubs and units. The SCBC would not be such a favorable place without them. Please consider joining a board committee. You do not need to be an expert player or a long-time member of the Santa Cruz Bridge Center (Unit 550). Your ideas and enthusiasm are all that is required. The Board deals with all aspects of running the Santa Cruz Bridge Center to create an overall bridge experience for our members that is entertaining and educational while maintaining a friendly, competitive environment.
