Bridge Marathon a Big Success Forty-five happy bridge players attended the Awards Party that concludes this year’s AAUW Bridge Marathon.  Winners were announced, prizes were awarded, and everyone enjoyed a grand buffet of snacks while playing bridge. Many thanks to all those who made the event go so smoothly and successfully. Pam Duren headed up the refreshments and stayed through the evening to make sure the coffee, sandwiches, cookies, and other snacks were in plentiful supply. She was ably assisted by Stefani McRae-Dickey, who also supplied sandwiches and also recruited the donation of several prizes. Others who donated food included Jan Rounds, Louise Livesay, Velna Werth, Marge Bromley, Mary Lee Seward, Sandra Edinger, Janet Jarvis, Denise Nervik, and Nelwyn Price. Prizes were donated by Mary Mills, Ann Mills, Evelyn Stephens, Sue Borden, Martha Jenkins, Janice Abele, and Patty Eberhardt. A special thanks goes to Kori McDonald who donated two hours of consulting (Order out of Chaos, and Feng Shui) as door prizes for two lucky winners.  Businesses who donated prizes included Dutch Brothers Coffee, Coffee Culture, The Hilton Garden Inn, The Gables, Iovino’s Restaurant, and the HUT Airport Shuttle.  Be sure to thank them when you are in their establishments.  When all the expenses are in, we think we will clear over $2000 for our local scholarships.  Thanks again to everyone.
