Once per month, Unit 551 holds its Unit Game. We hold Unit games at the Friendship Center of Inland Christian Home. The address is 1950 S. Mountain Ave., Ontario. The Friendship Center is most easily reached from the back entrance, off Magnolia Street.
A Unit game is just like a club game, but it pays better master points.
Game time will be 11:00 a.m. We do not serve lunch, but there are always plentiful snacks available.
Coffee is free, and sodas and water are available for a nominal charge.
The entry fee for Unit games is $7 per person, except when the game is a STaC, in which case it is $9.
The Unit's Board of Directors meets before each game at 10:15 a.m. Anyone is welcome to sit in and listen, and Unit members are entitled to speak on the various issues which are discussed. Do you have a suggestion? Or, perhaps, a complaint? This is the forum where you may be heard!
Directions to the Unit game site:
Somehow, get to Mountain Avenue in Ontario. How your get there is up to you.
The site of the game - Inland Christian Home - is between Francis St. to the North, and
Philadelphia Street to the South. It is East of Magnolia, and West of Mountain Ave. The address
is 1950 South Mountain Ave.
Please refer to the map of the complex (there's a link on the Home Page.)
It will be easiest if you enter from Ramona. Use the southern entrance, as the northern
entrance requires a gate code. You can get in from Mountain, you just have to follow the
driveway around a bit more.
The Friendship Center is highlighted in pink; visitor parking is highlighted in green.
If you get lost, Tom will try to answer his phone ... but just before the game, he tends
to get rather busy! So try not to arrive at the last minute.
FREE Lessons: Roger Boyar will be conducting lessons every Wednesday, at La Fetra.
Start time is 8:00, and the lesson will wrap up by noon.
The topic (for the time being) will be "Play of the Hand." Pre-registration is not
required, but since space is limited, that might not be a bad idea!
NOTE: There will be a small (arouind $4 or less) charge for materials.
The Unit Game results are also available via ACBL Live-for-Clubs.
