Dear Member,<br>
<br>
Due to the ongoing risk posed by COVID-19, the ACBL <strong>has canceled the 2021 Spring North American Bridge Championships </strong>that were scheduled for March 11-21, 2021 in St. Louis, MO. <br>
<br>
ACBL officials and local volunteers have worked tirelessly with the host hotel and local government officials, and, sadly, the event cannot be held as scheduled because the coronavirus pandemic continues to surge and the vaccine roll-out is slower than anticipated. Please know the health and safety of our members and our employees is of paramount importance to us.<br>
<br>
Due to the attractiveness of the location, the ACBL is working to negotiate rescheduling an NABC in St. Louis sometime in the future. Members will be notified if and when those dates have been finalized.<br>
<br>
We will continue to offer chances to play and win black, silver, red and gold masterpoints<sup>®</sup> on Bridge Base Online. Details of ongoing and special events along with Virtual Clubs can be found at <a href="https://acbl.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0a09fd687ebd2b74a40bba3c4&id=0bff3656e6&e=70fa6a488a" style="color:#009ddc;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">acbl.org/virtual</a>.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
Joseph Jones<br>
ACBL Executive Director<br>
January 11, 2021
