Unit 505
Sacramento This month’s Kibitzer will arrive during the December Sectional and I hope all of you have
plans to play in an event or two. The more the merrier. See the flyer in this newsletter for more information.
We had our Unit Board meeting on November 11, 2018. The Board voted to accept the new Board members for the 2019 year. This year with 6 openings and 6 candidates the Board voted to approve them for the board positions. Welcome all new Board members.
The Unit game followed with few tables in attendance and we hope 2019 brings more attendance at our Unit games. Remember when you play in one of these games the rating is higher than a club game, so higher points are awarded. Also, the more tables the higher the points received.
I have enjoyed working with all the Board members this past year and thank them for all they do! We are fortunate to have these volunteers. My wish for all of you is the happiest of holidays and I look forward to playing bridge with you in the New Year!
Congratulation Jim, Josh, Barbara, Charles, David and Diane! The Unit 505 Board met on November 11,
before the unit game at Folsom.
A motion was made to declare the 2018 Election of the Unit 505 Board of Directors as uncontested and
moved to elect the slate of nominees by acclamation and to dispense with the balloting procedures.
The motion was seconded and passed.
Nominees approved: Jim Coke (incumbent), Josh Haskett, Barbara Somervill, Charles Peer, David Britton-Ohl and Diane Strategos.
Your term will begin in January and you will be joining
continuing board members Katherine Ewing, Marc Grunseth, Harry Struthers, and Sheron Neff.
We are so pleased having all of you on the Board.
You are sure to make a difference.
Thank you for serving.
