Bridge

One of the many social activities that is enjoyed by VCC residents is bridge. Since the 1930s, bridge has been one of the most popular card games in the world. While only basic knowledge of the game is required to begin playing and enjoying it, be forewarned: bridge is not an easy game to learn and it's even more difficult (most say impossible) to master. But that's precisely why bridge is so popular, and why it's called "the game for a lifetime." Games are played weekly at the clubhouse.
