    Hello Vlad, KEC (Kingston Easter Chess) was awarded the Zonals/Closed for the 4 years of 2019-2022 inclusive.

    Now with this "lost year" of 2020, is KEC extended to 2023 automatically, or do we need to prepare a motion?

    Thank you, best regards, Aris Marghetis, Eastern Ontario.

    I think that it is really up to you to ask. I don't see any problem granting this request as no one has stepped forward to ask for 2023. For some tournaments we had already accepted bids but in this case we haven't.

    Thanks, so what mechanism do we use to ask? Just by email to the CFC, or an AGM motion? And if the latter, do you need it beforehand, or just during the AGM?

    Thank you, best regards, Aris Marghetis, Eastern Ontario.

    We are discussing it already at the executive level. We will also discuss it at the AGM outgoing meeting. Again I believe the sentiment is to grant your request though discussions continue.

    Thank you Vlad (and the rest of the Executive) for this fair consideration.
