Please note that the first 2 Mondays, ie February 3 & 10, are "Draw for
Partners" so you do not need to arrange a partner for those 2 sessions. Come
along & take "pot luck" on who you might play with.

The Te Puke bridge Club held their very successful Christmas Party in the Queen Street Club rooms on Saturday 30 November. Members and friends met to play bridge and have a Christmas meal

Congratulations to Delcie Martin and Gabrielle Harris on receiving their Local Master certificates!
Our annual Daffodil Day tournament was held on Wednesday, 21 August, with 14.5 tables.
This event has been running for over 25 years, with daffodils from Matapara Farm courtesy of the Bayliss/Matthews family.
The winners of the Margaret Reeves trophy this year were Carol Grant and Keith Reddaway.
It is with sadness that I pass on the news to you that Margaret Mackay died peacefully yesterday afternoon surrounded by her family. Margaret was a life member of Te Puke Club. Together with the then president of the Te Puke Contract Bridge Club Margaret was a prime mover in the purchase of the clubrooms.
