How to Play Military Bridge


PRMHSA invites you to an evening of fun and excitement. Please join us for a thoroughly enjoyable card game called Military Bridge. It's fun, it's simple, and you can learn to play in a matter of minutes.

This year's event includes a light food buffet, 50/50 raffle and Coach Handbag raffle as well as the basket auction. The cost is $20 per player based on a table of 4.

Now more than ever we are counting on you to make this fundraiser a success.
The proceeds from this event will fund additional smart boards. In order to provide PRM with this innovative technology, we need your help. Pleases consider making a donation to our basket auction or table centerpiece sponsorship. All donations including cash are greatly appreciated.

Donations must be received by February 15th.

Look for Reservation forms and game instructions above.
