Welcome to the home of
ACBL Unit 549, serving
North County Inland San Diego
The Longest Day - Supporting Alzheimer’s Research
Wednesday, June 19th is the date BCNC has designated as their “Longest Day” game to support Alzheimer’s disease research funding. BCNC is making a push this year to increase donations from our Unit. ACBL has supported Alzheimer’s research funding for the past 10 years, raising over $9 MILLION dollars. This is the year we shoot that number way over $10 million, with your help.
How can you help?
Donate to the team online. Alan Turner has set up a teams page for us (click on “Donate" to get the link). Does anyone want to make a matching challenge? Let us know - we’d love to have it.
Play at BCNC on Wednesday 6/19, either morning or afternoon. If you usually attend another day of the week, make an effort to come that Wednesday - either in addition to or instead of your regular game. BCNC donates the proceeds of those games to Alzheimer’s Association vis ACBL.
Learn - A representative from the local Alzheimer’s Association will be there midday to give a short presentation, as well as an appearance by local biotech entrepreneur Jay Lichter (and suspected bridge widower). Jay has been involved in early stage drug development for over 30 years locally and will give a brief talk about the history and challenges of developing a drug for Alzheimer’s.
LOVE THE GAME, LOVE YOUR BRAIN
