Bridge lessons kick off on Thursday 4th May at 7pm with Tyrel and Charlotte our tutors this year. Make sure you tell your friends, the postman, electrician, relief milker, hiking friends ... maybe even your family:)
A mention on the radio and some recent successes and hands round out this months Te Aroha newsletter from Richard.
Waikato Area Pairs - put it in the calendar!
The WAP series starts this month in Morrinsville on the 26th March.
The series is a relaxed walk-in costing only $10 per person (BYO lunch).
It takes place in 5 central Waikato clubs on Sundays, once a month over the next 5 months - come along to just one or try and win some of the overall prizes by competing in at least 4 of the events.
Need to be played with the same partner (one sub allowed) and there are prizes for best non-open pairs.
We encourage you to support your club when it is held locally as well as the other events. This is a great event to hone your partnerships and is intended for any keen juniors and above.

Richard's report from the Gold Coast Congress dominates this newsletter with close to 20% of the Te Aroha club travelling across to Oz for the event.
