BRIDGE WITH WIMPY!

Bridge Lessons Debut March 9 at Cultural Center

Jim Diebel, certified bridge instructor and Unit 123 Kibitzer columnist, will be offering weekly bridge classes in the Renaissance Court at the downtown Chicago Cultural Center on Randolph Street starting on March 9th at 10:45am.   

He explains, “I’m prepared to start with card play basics, however, the depth of the lessons will depend on the students and their level of experience. We’ll start with basic fundamentals, expanding to more intermediate topics as we progress.”

Each lesson will cost $5, and if there are enough true newbies, a separate novice section will be created. The Cultural/Renaissance Center, has spacious rooms and plenty of presentation equipment. 

Jim is the owner and director of two area clubs. He has given private lessons for some time and his credentials are exemplary. At Unit 123 tournaments, he frequently contributes the highly popular “between-session” lessons. Jim started playing bridge in the early 80’s at the University of Illinois. Karen Walker and Jim O’Neil, well known personalities in Illinois bridge, were already “famous” names on the campus and were great role models for Jim himself. 

Anyone with questions about the bridge classes can contact Diebel at  630 244 9292.
