The Lake Chapala Duplicate Bridge Club has welcomed back Linda McGarry, who had taken a break from bridge, last playing in 2022.
She played three times with Carol Cortez and once with Charles Chartier, finishing in the money every time with a first with Carol. Welcome back Linda. Norman Rosenblatt also returned after a long absence - playing three times with David Hoogenberg and finishing in the overalls three times. Grace Donovan played with Lane Galloway for her first time in 2023.
It’s good to see that these players retain their skills.
