HAPPY
BIRTHDAY MARION LEVY! "I am 103 today (December 6, 2021) I have had my vaccines and play face-to-face bridge twice a week.
What's your excuse for not playing?"
Join us wishing Marion a very happy birthday. Play every week - let's all follow her example!
HOLIDAY APPEAL TO ALL CBA MEMBERS - PLEASE GIVE NOW
We are asking
all our members to donate a cash gift to the Cincinnati Bridge
Association to help defray the operating losses incurred in 2021 by the
Cincinnati Bridge Center. Please bring your gift to the bridge center
and place it in the lockbox provided.
Please make checks payable to Cincinnati
Bridge Association. Gifts of any size are welcome. All funds collected will go toward defraying the cost of running the Cincinnati Bridge Center (CBC). No one else will receive any money from these donations. You may also donate by credit card. Your gift is NOT tax deductible. The CBA is a 501(c)(4) Corporation under IRS law.
| Mail a check (not cash) to: Cincinnati Bridge Association Attn: Pam Campbell 2860 Cooper Rd Cincinnati OH 45241 |
We are working on a separate plan to raise funds for 2022. Hopefully that 2022 will be the last year that we have the need to appeal to you, our members. The more that people play at the CBC, the less we need to rely on your generosity. |
Cincinnati Bridge Association Board of Directors.
