The Club Championship will be a 7-round Round Robin tournament. Struggling for title of King of the Heap are, in no particular order, IM Jonathan Yedidia, FM Chris Chase, NM Carey Theil, IM Charles Riorden, NM Lawyer Times, NM Chris Williams, and NM Libardo Rueda.
People playing in the Hauptturnier Tournament this year include Terrance Fricker, Seth Lieberman, Robert Holmgren, Jonathan Lee, Ted Cross, Bernardo Iglesias, and Khimet Sadykov.
Chief Tournament Director for the two events is Robert Oresick. Our Treasurer was unfortunately ill as the tournaments began so Bernardo Iglesias stepped in for him for the time being. We await a good word regarding Bob's health with anticipation.
