A big turnout for our year-end celebration
December 17, 2022
It was quite a crowd in the playing hall at Harvard Avenue this weekend! Seventy-eight chess players participated in this weekend's Holiday Open, some of them from Kansas, Texas, and Arkansas. Ten players were first-time tournament competitors.
There were three perfect scores in the event: Ezra Dubé, Kipp Opperman, and Milam Dobbins scored 4 out of 4 points to tie for first place in the U1300. Three winners tied for the first-place spot in the Open, as well: Viraj Singh, Joe Veal, and Max Barnes tied for first place with 3.5 out of 4 points.
Our thanks to Chief TD Harold Brown and assistants Jim Berry, Chris Dooley, and Tom Braunlich. Thanks also to all the players and parents who took time out of their holiday schedules to come play and help make the event such a fun one for us all. Happy holidays!
