Complimentary Hot Lunches

The Sheraton’s Chef David will provide us with hot lunches every day. His menu usually includes a very popular Taco Bar, Soup & Salad Bar, and a Pasta Bar. Lunch is always ready shortly after the morning session. This is a perfect opportunity to catch up with old friends or make new ones.

 

Happy Hour Hospitality

Immediately following our afternoon session, we will have happy hour in our hospitality rooms. This includes an open bar and non-alcoholic drinks along with snacks and hot appetizers. There is plenty of seating at which to meet up with your friends to discuss the day’s bridge. Don’t miss out on happy hour as it is a lot of fun, especially if you are celebrating a winning day.

 

Dinner

Our host hotel, the Sheraton Overland Park, is surrounded by some of the best restaurants in Kansas City. Many of our players from out of town look forward to capping a fun day of bridge with a special dinner at one of these fine restaurants.  Check out our Restaurant Guide which features locally owned favorites and regional chains. It is important to make your restaurant reservation before you come.

 

Evening Bridge

For those diehards still looking for a game after dinner, there is a pairs game that starts at 7:00.

 

Pre-Registration Highly Recommended

We issue Tournament IDs to all players at the time of registration. Tournament IDs allow players to participate in our complimentary lunches and open bar hospitality. Knowing someone’s name and where they are from adds to the fun.

 

You can save time waiting in line at registration by letting us know you will be attending. We will have your Tournament ID prepared and available for you to pick up at the Advanced Registration Desk. You will also be eligible to win a free play given away each day.

To pre-register send an email to richardjoneskc@gmail.com telling us when you will arrive.

 

Fast Results

Many of our players have signed up for Fast Results. This allows them to receive an email every morning that gives them results from the previous day. They also receive announcements for the day including the lunch and hospitality menus and the day’s guest speaker. Staying connected while you are here will prevent you from missing out on any of the fun. Sign up for Fast Results before you come by sending an email with your ACBL# in subject line to FASTRESULTSHELPDESK@gmail.com.

 

If you want a headshot photo linked to your name to appear in the online results page, send the photo to Help@TheCommonGame.com, with your ACBL# in the subject line.
