Regional wrap-up
The final table count isn’t in, but it’s in the neighborhood of 1150 tables, which is in the neighborhood of 64% of the 2019 table count. Earlier regionals were running at 45%, so this is very good news for Denver and for bridge as a whole. If you came out to play, thank you for your support and we’ll see you next year.
Jan Janitschke Award for 2021
The Jan Janitschke Award, presented to a member of Unit 361 for outstanding work in bridge education or mentoring, went to Elly Larson, owner of Denver Metro Bridge Studio. Elly has provided space and support for classes and beginner games, run online beginner games, and supported bridge in general. Congratulations Elly!

Email ‘phishing’
You may have received an email from ACBL reporting a ‘phishing’ scam that was sent to some members’ emails. Additionally, you may have received an email from one of the Unit 361 board members asking you to purchase something on the board member’s behalf.
Please know that Unit 361 Board Members will NEVER use their position to solicit money or charitable contributions, or send an email asking you to spend money on their behalf.
When receiving questionable emails, please check the sender’s address as a clue to its real source. Please contact us if you have questions about any solicitation message you receive from a Board Member.
