Duplicate bridge players gather at the Austin Senior Center to play the game at 11:30 a.m. Tuesdays and Wednesdays every week.

- First: Theresa Baldus and Joyce Crowe

Tuesday’s group also had the honor of singing and welcoming Edna Knobbe from Rose Creek, who turned 99 this week. She still enjoys bridge and playes often. Edna has been playing weekly for years and encourages elderly card players to join in on this game. Just meet her, and she will vouch for the benefits of this game.
Three tables were played Wednesday. Winners were as follows:
- First: Stan Schultz and Tom Flaherty
- Second: Dave Ring and Gail Schultz
