Susan Stewart

Partnership Coordinators and Unit Information: If you need a partner contact the following partnership coordinators at [email protected]. For a partner for Novice or Intermediate Games contact Bonnie Butler and for a partner for Open Games contact either Eileen Utter or Barbara Lubsen. For information about our Sun Lakes unit check online at www.unit351.com, click the Clubs tab and click on Sun Lakes and you will find many links for all information and results.
Monthly Hint: Play in tempo. Do not hesitate when you have no problem, or you have only a singleton, or Declarer is finessing for a Queen and you do not have it. If you need extra time it must be for a legitimate reason such as counting out the opponents’ hands. Intentional actions can ruin your bridge reputation.
