Entering the Club - Members and Guests

Every person who enters the Club must be checked in at the front desk.

Members are asked to come to the desk to greet their friends or family.
A guest may not sign in alone.

Temporary Suspension of Barbecues at the Club

Dear Members,
In light of the current extreme weather conditions and the ongoing wildfires affecting the Île-de-France region, we kindly remind all members that, with immediate effect, the use of barbecues at the Club is not permitted until further notice.
This precautionary measure has been taken in the interests of everyone’s safety due to the exceptionally dry conditions in the Meudon Forest and the significantly increased risk of fire.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping to protect our Club, its surroundings, and the wider community.
Thank you for your continued support.

Tennis News - Clay tennis courts - hot, dry weather

Dear members,
The hot, dry weather this year is taking its toll on our clay tennis courts. 
Given the conditions, members playing on the clay courts must take the extra time to water them thoroughly before and after play. If you are playing a long match, think of watering them between sets.
Thank you,

The Tennis Committee

Bridge News - Next tournament Tuesday 15 Sept

The first tournament of the new season will be on Tuesday 15 September. We will start at 2 pm with a quiz (see main article) on the theme: "Re-opening bid in 4th seat after a 1NT opening?" ("Reveiller sur 1SA d'ouverture?). It's an interesting subject. The tournament will begin at 2.30 pm, and we will end with a little cocktail (€6).

I'm sure you realise it is time to renew your FFB licence. Jenny will get back to you very soon with the amount to pay this season; you can now renew directly on the Federation site under your "Espace personnel" or by bank transfer to the SAC Bridge Section account.
