Summer does fly when you are having fun. And that is what over 100 people had at the annual Unit Picnic. A HUGE THANKS to Paul and Linda Zittel for providing us with a wonderful day and delicious picnic.
Thanks to Jim Gullo for making the vegetable lasagna (yummy). Thanks to Linda Burroughsford and Peter Patterson for volunteering their day to help out with the new Bridgemate program. (People caught on very quickly and enjoyed). Thanks to Eugene Harvey for directing.
Thanks to our mighty bakers and to Pat Lakeman who lines them up for us.
As always, our great events are the result of many hands.
Next up is the Carrousel Museum Day of Fun on Sunday August 24. Tickets are on sale from board members. See you there.
Betty Metz, President WNY Unit 116

Welcome
to the Western New York Unit 116 website. Our unit of over
450
dedicated bridge players is part of the American Contract Bridge
League’s District Five. Geographically, we encompass the
counties
of Erie and Niagara, at the eastern end of Lake Erie and western end of
Lake Ontario, in New York State. We often have players from
across the Canadian border playing at our clubs.
Our goal is to
promote bridge and support local bridge clubs.
We have six open, active clubs. We host three sectionals each year –
January,
April/May, and September – as well as a Non-Life Master sectional in
the summer. The District Five Regional is held at the end of
October and famously titled “Spooktacular”. Numerous unit
games
are held throughout the year.
We publish a
bi-monthly newsletter,
Bridge Buff,
for and about its members. It regularly includes extensive
interviews with several members, an interesting bridge hands and
analysis, and perhaps a good recipe enjoyed at a Unit game.
The "Bridge Buff" issues were retrieved
(thank you
Kathy Pollock and Alex Kowal) starting
with issues back in the past. You can read old and
current issues to see where
we
were and where we are going as a bridge community. There was a gap in
publishing from March to October 2007, when the bridge community was
torn apart by controversy and the Buff was on hold.
Help preserve the bridge history of Unit 116 by downloading the files
and saving them - you will never know when and who from the future
generations will read them.
