The concepts and rules for bridge are easy to learn. Bridge can be a relaxing way to spend an evening or a challenging way to stretch your thinking. We will learn the game in easy steps using the book Bridge for Everyone by D.W. Crisfield as our guide. This will also make it possible to miss some classes and still participate using the book. We will start with the play of the cards and move on to concepts of bidding. There are only 16 words used in the bidding auction. What could be easier? At the conclusion you will be ready to join the Bridge Special Interest Group at OLLI or play with your friends over a few drinks. Bridge is one of the games that may help prevent dementia and is much easier to learn than other activities that decrease risk of dementia like learning a new language. Come join us for a few hours of learning and collegiality. It is suggested that participants purchase or download Bridge for Everyone by D.W. Crisfield.
