Southwest Chess Club Action!

This Thursday (10 March 2011) the Southwest Chess Club presents “Wind Blowing, Storms-a-roaring, Marching into Spring Swiss” (see below for details).  We plan to start promptly at 7:00 p.m.  Registration is 6:20-6:50 p.m.  I plan to close registration at 6:50.  If you arrive after first-round pairings are prepared, you will have to take a 1/2-point bye in the first round. 

However, if you want to play but anticipate being a few minutes late, please e-mail me or Tom Fogec or call me 414-861-2745 or Tom 414-425-6742 prior to 4:00 p.m. on March 10, so I can include you in the pairings.  If you need a first round bye please let me know as soon as possible and you can have one.  Thanks.  Hope to see everybody on Thursday.   Robin
