    Reminder: If you leave us a message regarding arriving late, not coming for a round, etc., via text, phone or blog, if you do not receive a response from us, then please assume we did not receive your message. Also, if you have a forced BYE, pairings can change, so plan to show up (or else let us know you are definitely not going to make it). Thanks.

    Due to the Village Hall basement being flooded, chess for this week is cancelled. Round 4 will be played on August 21st.

    I will repair the tentative pairings for round 4 on Saturday, as all the byes requested for this round will disappear. So if you cannot play on August 21st, please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks.

    Right now we cannot play on August 21 due to water damage in the Meadow's Room. Here is hoping the damage is repaired so we can restart the club championship on August 28. Please monitor the blog for further updates. Thanks.
