Building Bridges
Meets monthly on the 1st Thursday of the Month1
2:30pm in the Parlor
βAll Levels Welcome ~ Come join the fun!
The game of Bridge is a great way to stay sharp and make friends. We welcome players of all skill levels and are willing to train new learners.
Researchers have discovered that mentally challenging games such as bridge are well suited for people because the games offer intellectual and social stimulation on a routine basis. Bridge's intricacies make it particularly appealing for those who want to sharpen acuity with mental gymnastics. A study in 2000 at the University of California, Berkeley, found strong evidence that an area in the brain used in playing bridge stimulates the immune system. Researchers suggest that is because players must use memory, visualization and sequencing.
β
Bridge is also a social game. This distinction is important because itβs well-known that staying socially connected is key to good health. Playing bridge can help you develop new social circles and we are always looking to make new friends. We donβt care how good you are, just that you are open to making new friends!

Those wishing to join, please contact the Church Office and we will put you in contact with Terry Shores and Doreen McDonald.
