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.

the meantime, why not click on the lessons below and start
learning the OKBridge version of
