BRIDGE CLUBS' WINNINGS GO FOR DONATION

Caryl Solomon plays in two bridge groups, one on Monday nights and the other on Wednesday nights. Those two groups and another bridge club contributed the Good Neighbors Fund on Tuesday.

The Monday and Wednesday clubs save their winnings until the end of the year, when they donate them to the Good Neighbors Fund.

The two groups started the custom when the Good Neighbors Fund began 11 years ago and have been doing it ever since.

"The winnings really aren't a lot, but they add up," said Solomon.

She said it would be nice if other bridge or golf groups did the same.

Jewel Sheere of Good Friends Thursday Bridge Club also sent in a check from her group.
