Congratulations to Jon S., who has shown up ranked 3rd as he becomes
eligible for a club ranking.
Trix has now exceeded scoring a total of 100,000 point during this club
season. Judy H. and Joel are likely to reach this number before the end
of the current season.
Corrections to last week's news about the SWILLNS tourney in New Mexico:
- Joey was in second place after the first day, but he placed 8th in the
2-day event;
- this event tends to be held every other year, not annually as reported.
Joey announces:
I'm directing my first tournament in Maine over Labor Day weekend.
Full details can be found on cross-tables.com, and there are now
flyers at the club.
Brett Constantine announces:
I am running my first tournament June 28th! It's a five-game, one-day,
1/3 rated tournament, with an entry fee of $10. I know it's quite a
drive for a short tournament from Eastern MA and NH to Northampton, MA,
but you are all welcome to come. Email or call me for more details:
