RAINBOW Series

______ The Rainbow Series, held every weekday morning at 8:00 A.M., is a lecture program on the SAYC system, from Opening Bids all the way through to the conventional aspects of SAYC. Unlike the FireSide and 5th Chair sessions mentioned above, the Rainbow Series is a semi-private lesson program for our students. Nevertheless, you are invited to stop by and "eavesdrop" on the discussion from the Spectator's Loft.

______ The Rainbow Series has been very well received by attendees. At $60 for twelve lessons it may be the least expensive bridge course you will find anywhere! Click here to have the twelve lessons in this popular series emailed to you.

______ CLICK HERE to email your registration. In the meantime, why not click on the lessons below and start learning the OKBridge version of Standard American Yellow Card now ?
