For Score And Five Minutes

Greetings,

 

The newest edition of the CSCN Newletter is out!  This issue deals with the rule that players must keep score the entire game with 30 second increment.

 

The CSCC is proud to host the newest chess lecturer, Brian Rountree, next Tuesday at 7pm.  There is no charge for the event, and Brian will be signing autographs and taking picture afterwards.  He will be discussing one of his favorite openings, and we will hold a Thematic, Swiss tournament (unrated) after the talk to test out all his wisdom.  All are welcome.

 

Earle Wikle won the IHOP Quick this past Friday.
