The New Play Bridge
You will see some familiar names in the new Play Bridge section for newcomers in The Bridge Bulletin magazine.
The section debuts with the August issue.
Among the contributors is a trio of popular teachers—Barbara Seagram,
Marti Ronemus and Val Covalciuc—who will take turns offering their expertise on a variety of subjects. Pat Harrington will present
her Play and Learn lessons, and Jerry Helms stays on board to answer readers’ questions.
We welcome your suggestions for how to make this section appealing to our newer players. Send your ideas to editor@acbl.org.
