It’s certainly a period in our lives that we won’t easily forget, unfortunately so, and I hope you’re making the best of it. I want to put in a plug here for making sure you can receive email communications from the ACBL. This is the best way to receive news about what’s going on in the bridge universe, and not just for the ACBL.

If you don’t currently receive these messages, here’s what you can do:
