Bridge
Bridge is one of the most popular card games played today throughout the world. Modern Bridge was developed from whist, which has been played for centuries. It is from Russian Whist, called "Biritch" (from where the name Bridge derives) that Auction Bridge developed in 1904. The American, Harold Vanderbilt, in 1925, set out the rules for Modern Contract Bridge, which with some additional changes is the game we play today. Bridge is thought to be an excellent way of keeping the brain exercised and active. Do come and join us.
