Emily v Lee

In August we will shake things up a bit. The August Swiss (4 rounds) will be played on the 4th and 11th and will consist of two rounds per night at a time control of Game/30 with a 15 second increment. EF: $2

REVISED--We will also offer a separate tourney--same as above except Game/29 time control so Quick Chess rated only. Both tourneys are wholly dependent on sufficient entries to start.

On August 18th we will hold our summer blitz.  5-double SS (play 2 games against each opponent, Black/White)Unrated game/5  EF: $1 Prizes: 50% of EFs to 1st 50% of EFs to Top Under/1500

On August 25th we will offer Game/15 with a 15 second increment Quick Quads. EF: $1

Please review your chess clock manual to insure you are able to set your clock for the increment time control. You can also search google and youtube for instructions on setting various types of digital chess clocks for increments.

If anyone is missing an umbrella please let me know. If was left in the room last night. If no one responds I will turn it into the Library lost and found next week.
