Lymington Bridge Club
We started our 150th anniversary year
by commissioning an artist to paint the
front of our listed building to the left
of Marks and Spencer in Lymington. Aimee
Durnell, produced a colourful watercolour for
us which when scanned will
grace the front of our
history booklet which will be
published later in the year.
This interesting look back in
time has been compiled by
Roger Needell, the husband
of one of our members,
together with some input
from our Chairman Julia
Wood.
The original painting will be on our Clubroom
wall but a one off framed print will be raffled at
our special 150th lunch at South Lawn Hotel in
November. More details to follow.
Our first event - Andrew Robson tuition day on
March 10th again at South Lawn Hotel. The
event was advertised to other local bridge
clubs (Andrew Robson OBE is an English
professional bridge player, writer and teacher.)
There will be some other commemorative
items mainly based on Aimee’s painting for sale
on 10th March and available throughout the
year. Monies raised from sale of all items will
go to a local charity.
We intend to get back to face to face bridge
very shortly now restrictions have eased and
more people will be seen going in and out of
that yellow door again! Wed March 16th at
1.30 pm is THE DAY with an added incentive of
lunch for members before the afternoon bridge
session. Booking is required.
If you are interested in joining the bridge club
or would like to know more about the
commemorative items or future events please
