This is a non USCF rated tournament.

Students may be able to get a bye if they're leaving early or leaving for an hour during the tournament and coming back. You must let us know at least  15 minutes BEFORE the pairings for the round that you'll miss.  

*We will have a professional photographer, Guisel Johnson from a chess playing family there taking hundreds of pictures and gifting them to our chess community for free again this year.

  NONE of these photos will be posted on social media, but will  instead be in a private password protected gallery that parents may download after the tournament.

After the tournament, Guisel will give me the password that will ONLY go out to the families/coaches/teachers of students in this tournament.

If any information is not correct below, you can contact me at meteormike@msn.com to have it fixed. Or just hit the "Contact" moderator button at the top of this screen.
