A Message from our President:

I would like to propose some additional improvements for our club.  I hope all LBA bridge players have enjoyed our previous trip into high tech with the advent of the Dealer4 hand dealer, hand records, and the Bridgemate wireless scoring system.  I think it has made our game more enjoyable and also easier in the pure mechanics of the game.  I would like to ask any willing members for an additional donation to take one added step. 

Our educational program has been very successful in adding to our ranks but I think that we can do an even better job if we had a good audiovisual system to project lesson hands and hand records for teaching review.  It would also allow the directors to post seating assignment for Swiss events and for "with one round to go" results.   I seek about $1500-$2000 more to accomplish this goal. Additionally, I was struck the other day with the glaring vulnerability to which we were exposed during the recent  tornadoes in Louisville.  We sat together at the club not knowing what was going on around us in terms of the dangerous weather.  This project would allow us to access local TV for current weather information if needed. 

Any of you who didn't get to contribute previously or who feel especially generous are encouraged to participate.  I think it will be a good step forward and will bring even more enjoyment of our game.  Thank you for your support.

I am also very pleased to announce that our new board has convinced the Lexington club to switch the playing site of the Regional event from the Horseshoe Casino to the Ramada Plaza, (where we have our sectionals).   I don't know yet whether it will commence this year or next but we are moving!  As soon as we know the date, I  will be coming to you all with a request to initiate communication with your national bridge friends to get the word out about this change.  I hope we can encourage more people to attend our tournaments.  I know that many of you have desired this change in playing location.  We accomplished it,  but I need your help in making it a success.  Thanks for your assistance.
