Tim White, our Region representative, bid on, won, and played a game with Dan Jacob as part of the 2026 Maple Leaf Celebrity Classic.
This event helps raise funds for the Canadian Bridge Federation (CBF); fundraising events like this cover the bulk of the CBF’s operating expenses. Among many other beneficial activities, the CBF manages the Canadian Trials, a pathway to World Bridge Federation events for Canadian citizens. The Canadian Trials are often co-scheduled with D19’s Penticton tournament.
Tim shared this video discussing his experience. The auction for the next Maple Leaf Celebrity Classic begins on November 1st; celebrities like Bob Hamman, Zia Mahmoud, Jason Feldman, James Holzhauer, Robert Todd, Geoff Hampson, Joe Grue, and Ola Rimsteadt will be up for bid for 2027’s event. You can learn more about the event and how to bid on the CBF’s website.
