This year we're scheduled at the same time as a national girl's chess competition in Chicago so some of our best female players may not be with us this spring.  This may present a great opportunity for some new chess femme future stars to shine at the Hales Corners Challenge!!!!!  They're great events, I hope there will be a "fabulous, dahling" turnout!
