Bridge Academy
of North Dallas
BAND Youth Bridge Summer Camp 2011

week-long bridge adventure for kids ages 5-16.  Twelve-year-old Taylor
Compton was the primary instructor with assistance from her mother Donna
Compton and Camp Counselors Roslyn Miller, Bria Brackett and Morgan
Compton.

The kids came to camp for five days - four hours a day!  It was amazing the
excitement and concentration they brought with them each day.  During the first
four days, they completed the 16 hour Introduction to Bridge Course -
homework and all!

The final day consisted of two tournaments (6 boards each) with pizza and ice
scream during intermission - Oh and a visit from Bob Hamman!

By Day 3, the room was filled with questions like
"Would you sort my hand?"
"What's my score?"
"Who's the dealer?"
"How many paper clips do I give you for a jolly rancher?"
"How many points do I need for a webkinz?"
Thanks to our Camp Counselors Morgan Compton,
Bria Brackett & Roslyn Miller for answering all of these
questions and keeping the game going!
