1st and 3rd Fridays at 7:00 p.m.
Convenor: Marianne Moore

We're a friendly group of bridge players, who take turns hosting in our homes. If you'd like to join the group, find a bridge partner of either gender and contact the convenor. If you don't have a partner, we may be able to match you up with another single. We welcome new members at any time of the year. A Bridge partner may be of any gender.

Monday Afternoon Bridge – every Monday 1:00 p.m.
Convenor: Linda Story

Monday Afternoon Bridge Group meets almost every Monday of the year (unless there is a big holiday) from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at members' homes. Previously there were 24 regular members plus players on a spares list. Members are asked to call each hostess two weeks in advance of her hosting Monday to reserve a playing position. Most hostesses are able to accommodate three tables of Bridge. Each Monday, money is collected and divided into money prizes for the day plus a $5.00 donation to CFUW Scholarship Trust Fund.

Convenor: Anne Brackstone

This is a social bridge group that will gather alternate Wednesdays (1st
& 3rd) in the afternoon 1:30 - 3:30pm.
New players are welcome so long as they have some experience or have taken bridge lessons previously.

On HOLD for now:
Social Contract Mixed Evening Bridge - 3^rd Friday 7:00 p.m.
Convenor: Marion MacDonald

This group meets the third Friday evening of each month at 7:00 p.m. at members' homes. A good fundamental knowledge of bridge helps make it satisfactory for all. The mixed concept of partners could be husband & wife partners, or same gender partners. Evening consists of four or five rounds, changing partners after each round (four hands). Light refreshments during and/or after.

Wednesday Afternoon Bridge – every Wednesday 1:00 p.m.
Convenor: Rosemary Chatterley

This group originated from a core of people who attended a CFUW/Kanata's Beginners' Bridge class in the spring of 2005. Since then, we've been "bitten" by the bridge "bug" and meeting weekly, have all enjoyed the friendship with the challenge of Bridge in a supportive, non-critical, learning environment.

This group is still alive, in spite of the year’s covid restrictions! Some members are playing Bridge on line with Bridge-base.

We plan to have some in-person hosts. The host provides tea, coffee, etc. and some nibbles. Sign-up with the host for Regular Members can start a week beforehand, and Spares in the 3 days beforehand. The group’s aim again will be to have a friendly, supportive atmosphere, playing Bridge as per ACBL rules.
