Saturday Games Return? Hinsdale Club Shows Way Sept. 12
Saturday games will be making a fall/winter comeback in ACBL Unit 123!
The Hinsdale Duplicate Bridge Club will indeed be charting new ground and showing the way by debuting Sept. 12 a newly sanctioned open game at a Hinsdale church.
Routinely, the Hinsdale duplicate club operates at the Hinsdale Community Center twice a week but when the center lacked space for the club on Saturdays, Diane Martin, HDBC owner, took advantage of availability at the Union Church, 137 S. Garfield, Hinsdale IL, where she also teaches.
“This Saturday idea all started a couple tournaments ago when I had a number of players asking me to start a weekend game and I thought why not?” explained Diane, who is well-known across the unit as a registered ACBL tournament director. She also has been a club director for 20 years.
Diane stressed there are no schedule changes in her two HDBC games on Monday and Thursday at the Hinsdale Community Center. The new Saturday game (at the Union Church) in the Youth Room on the 3rd floor starts at noon with plenty of parking. Players are asked to find spots on the south side of the church. The entry fee is $10. Players are asked to bring their own food and snacks.
