Card Games at the Scarsdale Adult School

Bridge, canasta, and mah jongg are growing in popularity, especially at Scarsdale Adult School. Classes in all begin the week of Sept. 16. New to SAS, Robin Brown and Jill Marshall, two experienced bridge instructors, will be leading the fall bridge courses. Brown is an ACBL certified bridge director and teacher and Marshall is a Gold Life Master. Brown will be teaching the beginner bridge class on Tuesdays from 1 to 2:45, the advanced beginner workshops on Wednesdays from 1 to 2:45 p.m., and the intermediate to advanced course on Wednesdays from 11 to 12:45, all at Westchester Reform Temple. Marshall will lead "Supervised Play" on Tuesdays from 9:30 to 11:15 a.m. at Westchester Reform Temple. Six bridge classes cost $150, with prices adjusted accordingly for courses having fewer or more meeting dates.

Veteran instructor Alice Levinson returns to SAS for day and evening classes of beginner canasta (Wednesdays 10:30 to 12:30 p.m., 1 to 3 p.m., or 7 to 9 p.m.). Levinson will also run the evening sessions of beginner mah jongg on Tuesdays 7 to 9 p.m., and Katie Goldberg will be back for the daytime sessions (Mondays 1 to 3 p.m. or Thursdays 10 a.m. to noon). Both the canasta and mah jongg beginner classes run six weeks and cost $130, with an additional materials fee payable to the instructors. Daytime classes are at Westchester Reform Temple and the evening classes are at Scarsdale High School.

Interested players may sign up as a group, with a partner, or as a singleton as a great way to meet other players at the same level. Courses are filling quickly. If your desired class is full, please place your name on the waiting list in case there are openings. To register, visit www.ScarsdaleAdultSchool.org.
