I started playing bridge in college (Brown ’69) and accumulated something over 20 master points. But after I graduated I had no partner, so I stopped playing and got involved in my career, raising a family, and playing softball.

In November, 2022, 50+ years later, I resumed playing once or twice a month at the White Rose Bridge Club in York, PA. It’s a bit of a drive for me from my home in Gettysburg, but well worth it. I’ve now gotten used to the mini-lessons before each session, the bidding cards, and electronic scoring. I don’t have a regular partner, so I play with whoever is available when I show up. I rejoined the ACBL and I’m slowly working my way back to my previous status.

I can’t say enough good things about White Rose, and in particular, Ed Scanlon, who directs the morning sessions when I play.
