SNOW POLICY: The Carlin Springs Bridge Club will parallel Arlington public school closings. If the public schools are closed, the bridge club will also be closed on that day.

Snow Policy: When the Montebello Community Center closes, the game is cancelled. Please phone the desk at 703-960-0410 before leaving home to make sure. Of note, on January 22, after the snow Sunday, Montebello put sand and treated the roads perfectly so this facility is on top of weather problems and their roads.

Snow Policy: The JCC Snow policy will coincide with the policy of the center. Call 703-323-0880 on inclement weather Sundays to determine close or open status.

 Please note: All scoring errors must be reported within 24 hours of the end of the game. If reported after that, scoring corrections will not be done.
