Welcome to the Rochester Duplicate Bridge Club!  We warmly welcome you to the table with a mix of in person, face-to-face games and stay at home, online bridge games!  The RDBC holds in-person bridge games at St. Luke's Episcopal Church (COVID vaccination no longer required, masks optional at this time, but have one ready in case a player requests you wear it while at their table).  For location and game details, click here.  Our online games during the week can be found by clicking here to see the schedule.

The Rochester DBC's one-day NLM event on June 5th was a huge success; 18.5 tables (that's an increase of +12.1% over last year), with the winners of the morning session Dan Holte [Minneapolis] and David Mussell [St Charles].  They had a 67.81% game!  The afternoon session went to David Lui [Roseville] and Rochester native Rick Trachy [Golden Valley], picking up the afternoon session title with a 60.42% game.  Once again Bonnie Fox and her Bonnie's Bakers did a terrific job with the treats.  Thanks to all who participated and all who volunteered to make this event so successful.

 

The month of June includes The Longest Day fundraising games, where your donations go to help patients suffering from Alzheimer's and their caregivers.  It's your chance to help make a difference in finding a cure for this terrifying disease.  The RDBC will have fundraising games on Monday, June 16th (at 9am and 1pm), along with a special online game on Saturday, June 21st.  But you do not have to wait to make a donation - click here for the Alzheimer's Association website and your opportunity to make a difference.
Congratulations to all the RDBC players that had fun at the Gopher Regional Tournament this month.  In addition to the many, many gold masterpoints that were dished out during Tournament Week, Friday was "Carol Mahoney Day" at the Gopher - and a dozen Rochester players were there to honor her.  Here's a look at that group and the list of RDBC players that got some gold.
 
Note that the Thursday online BBO game has been suspended until later this fall.  Keep our other online games going by playing online Friday at 12:30p and Saturday evenings at 7p!
