| ACBL Headquarters is moving to Horn Lake, Mississippi.
Amid considerable fanfare and with numerous government officials on hand,
the city of Horn Lake MS welcomed the ACBL, which will relocate national
Headquarters from Memphis later this year.
Ceremonies took place on the property, a 30,000-square-foot building originally
designed as a medical facility. The ACBL will have it renovated to accommodate
the Headquarters staff. Jay Baum, ACBL's chief executive, said the work
probably will begin in mid-July. "We hope to be able to move in before
the end of the year," Baum said.

Our Atlanta Junior Bridge students played well in the Grand National Teams
(GNT) last weekend in Morganton, NC. Congratulations to the team
of Zandy Rizzo, Murphy Green, Angie Green, Arjun Dhir, Andrew Jeng and
Richard Jeng for placing third Saturday which qualified them for the Flight
C semi-finals Sunday in the Grand National Teams. The Dhir team finished
3/4.
The team of Ricoh Das, Karan Vohra, William Dang, and Jimmy Fordham placed
fifth on Saturday. Coming from behind at the half, they barely missed
qualifying. Another 3VP's would have won them a place in the playoffs.
Well done and congratulations to everyone. Not only did you play
well, but your behavior, skill, and demeanor was commented upon throughout
the tournament, earning good marks for young bridge players everywhere.
Zandy, Murphy, Angie, Arjun, Ricoh, Karan and William are from Alpharetta
and currently attend classes taught by Carolyn and Lee Eckert. Andrew
and Richard are from Johns Creek and are taught by Marty Nathan at the
ADBC and by Lola Sliom. Many of the players are graduates of AJB's
Summer Camps taught by Nancy Watkins and Patty Tucker, and all still attend
summer camps on a regular basis. Jenni and Tom Carmichael have been
working on Precision with Zandy, Murphy, Andrew, Richard and Arjun at the
Alpharetta Bridge Club. Thank you to all of the teachers, assistants
and subs that share a part in their success.
