Well I am still having some computer problems. Brian has sent me a great flyer with advertising, maps, just a quality effort. But I can't get it uploaded to this site.,,uggrrrr.....
I understand advertising packages will be arriving at selected chess clubs shortly, so watch for them. Ask your local chess club organizer for details. With this effort, I predict this tournament will be the largest in recent TO history. Don't miss it!!
