<DIV>Hello All:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I plan to man the Partnership Desk before all the sessions this weekend,
but I may need help.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My wife had spinal surgery yesterday (Wednesday) at Swedish in Seattle, and
seems to be doing fine. However the Dr. is uncertain when she may be ready
to come home or if she will need to go to a rehab facility.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If she comes home in the next day or two, I don’t know if I can leave her
for a couple of hours or so. If she is still in the hospital or goes to a
rehab place, I will cover the Desk, and perhaps play.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So it seems prudent to have some standby help available. Susan has
already said she could cover some of the sessions if I cannot.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If any of you might be available, perhaps on short notice, please let me
know, and I will make sure we have the situation covered.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Note that ACBL recommends the Partnership Desk be manned 1 hour before
afternoon sessions and 30 minutes before evening games.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks, Larry</DIV>
