The Unit Christmas Party
Gail and I haven’t been to a lot of Unit games lately, but didn’t want to miss the Christmas party in the new club.
The joint was jammed. 19 tables of open players and 3 tables of 199’rs.
There was plenty of food. Lynn Sacco lined up a host of donors to bring the munchies.
The buffet table groaned, as usual.
Gail will forgive me if I tell you my favorite girl was the in bright Christmas colors:
How can you resist a shirt that lights up?
We played so-so bridge, but I had a great time taking photos of people. Here are the many of the people who celebrated the event today:
EE
Twenty-two tables is more than I thought they could get into that space, but it worked. Grant ran a complex movement so we all played the same 26 boards, where it seemed like E/W got more than their fair share of 1NT openers. Good thing I was West.
Jerry and Winnie took were first N/S and overall. Brian and Gish were first E/W. Ira Feldman and Clare Smith were the winners in the 199’r game.
Once again, the unit has celebrated a holiday season with a party for ourselves. Now if only we could share a bit of our good fortune with some less fortunate people, things would be great. That’s what I want for Christmas.

Great photos of lots of happy people. Lest you forget, CCBC donated to SHARE and Toys for Tots, as did many players.
I haven’t forgotten at all.
If CCBC, and the players, and the District can make charitable donations, why is the unit selfishly sitting on over $30.000? The “I got mine, Jack” attitude is embarrassing.
