Neighbors of Pinehurst www.neighborsofpinehurst.com A note from the president August 2019 Hello Neighbors, We have two great events coming up in August; our ever popular Dining Out series and our showcase Wine Tasting Dinner. I hope to see many of you at these two events. They promise to be outstanding! We certainly are in the middle of one hot summer! I hope you have all found ways to keep cool. Pete and I went to the beach to catch some ocean breezes and loved every moment. I’m not even going to mention September yet...I’m just not ready for fall. But do stay tuned for the upcoming fall events. Regards,
Patricia Keegan Neighbors 2019 President [email protected]

The object of the game is for a player to play all the dominoes from his or her hand onto one or more chains, or "trains", emanating from a central hub or "station". The game's most popular name comes from a special optional train that belongs to all players.

Neighbors Book Club Luncheon – October 24th
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me. C.S. Lewis
If you are looking for a good summer read (beach read!) look no further than The Bookshop at Water’s End or
Driftwood Summer by our Neighbors guest author Patti Callahan Henry. I read both books and recommend
them for your book clubs. Perhaps you could read one them before the luncheon - our author will be impressed if she sees that we have read one of her books!
Patti Callahan Henry is our author for the 2019 NOP Book Club Luncheon that will be held on
October 24th! Patti has written 14 novels and is a New York Times Best Selling Author. Her current novel
Becoming Mrs. Lewis is a tale of unlikely friendship turned into a true love between Joy Davidson and C.S. Lewis. Patti's novel The Favorite Daughter was released June 4th 2019. Patti resides in both Mountain Brook,
Alabama and Bluffton, South Carolina with her husband and three children.
I hope you’ll join us to hear this New York Times bestselling author!
Please donate any books you are finished reading to Dolores Flashman. Many of the book clubs are reading the
same books and this is a good way to share. Dolores will circulate a list of books available to book club members and if you would lie to borrow a book, contact her. The books are left on the bench on the front porch at 37
Glasgow drive for pick-up. If you have any questions contact Dolores at 255-0554 or dflashman11@gmail.

Bridge News
Ladies Marathon Bridge – August
Attention All Bridge Players!!! We have new members, some of whom are bridge players of all levels. There are about 75 players, men and women, currently playing bridge in NOP groups and marathons. I know there are bridge players out there who are not yet in a group or marathon. I know there are couples groups who play that are not currently supported by NOP. Send me your membership list to see if you qualify for support. I’d even be interested in starting a Men’s Marathon . . . Act 2 has one and so does Pinehurst Country Club. Grandslammer LXV started in July. Grandslammer LXIII is almost complete and all scores must be in by September 30th .Grandslammer LXIV won’t finish until October. I have four teams signed up for Grandslammer LXV, so those of you who have finished or are interested in starting a marathon in the fall need to sign up now! What about some of you new members? Find a partner and sign up. The next marathon will be Chicago. As soon as we have eight teams ready to play, we will begin the next marathon. The marathons are grouped by the player’s preference – Chicago or Rubber bridge scoring. As soon as eight teams, in either group, are signed up, play will begin. Karen Fogle is trying to organize a group that will play another Rubber Bridge marathon. If you like to join please let Karen and I know. We will start it as soon as we have 8 teams that want to play rubber bridge. This is a continuous process. So, sign up now by calling Phyllis Clark at 215-8730 or emailing her at [email protected]. Send your check/s for $10/lady made payable to Neighbors of Pinehurst to Phyllis Clark, 64 Stoneykirk Drive, Pinehurst, NC 28374. The documents are sent out in PDF format and can be read and printed from Adobe Reader, just like the newsletter. For those who do not have the email option, we will continue to use snail mail. Hostesses, please remember to schedule your games as early as possible giving your opponents several options. Everyone has busy schedules, so set up your game at least a month in advance. Thank you. Need a Partner? Give Phyllis a call at 215-8730 or email her at [email protected]. She will try to hook you up with other players who are looking for a partner. Have you considered playing in another marathon with a different partner? Maybe a new member? Another friend? Or, someone who’s looking for a partner?
Couples Marathon
Sign up now if you are interested in playing in the next couples’ marathon. Signups will continue until there are eight couples and another marathon will begin. Sign up and join in the fun! It’s a very nice way to spend an evening. Here’s wishing you great cards!
Games are scheduled so that you play with a different couple once a month for seven (7) months. If you enjoy bridge, this is a great way to meet new couples as well as spend an evening with friends. To sign up, send a check for $15/couple, made payable to Neighbors of Pinehurst, to Lynne Moore,
32 Lasswade Drive, Pinehurst, NC, 28374. Checks may be mailed or dropped in the basket on Lynne’s porch. If there are any questions, call Lynne at 235-3929 or email her at [email protected].
How Marathon Bridge Works – Each Marathon consists of seven months of scheduled play with one additional month allowed for the completion of all rounds. There are no games scheduled in December. Couples or lady partners may schedule play at their convenience during the eight-month period. Signups are on a first-come-first-served basis. When a group fills up, new signups are placed on a waiting list until there are eight teams to form a new group. This procedure continues throughout the year. So, if you are finishing one marathon and wish to continue or sign up for an additional one send in your check (s). For more information contact either Lynne or Phyllis.

Neighbors Bridge Groups – Neighbors supports various bridge groups by providing cards, score sheets, etc. The requirements for being a “Neighbors” group are simple: 1) All the members must be current members of Neighbors of Pinehurst. 2) You must use the ladies on the substitute list above as substitutes, whenever possible. To my knowledge there are four duplicate groups that currently qualify for NOP support. There is the 1st Monday Group headed by Judith Kelley, the 1st Friday Group (Bridge Babes) headed by Phyllis Clark, and the 3rd Monday Group which Phyllis also heads up. There is another 3rd Monday Game, which plays at Elliott’s restaurant. There is a 4-table duplicate group, which plays 28 boards. This group is headed by Kathy Samchalk and Joanne Hodges. They start at 9:45 and break for lunch. If there are any other NOP groups out there please send Phyllis your membership list to see if you qualify. NOP supports groups with cards, travelers, and recapitulation pads.
