Guelph Pro-Am updated list

[Hal Bond]

As many of you have noticed, threads are not being updated properly so I will try posting a new one. Capacity is capped at 100 players so there it is still possible to sign up. The entry fee for the Pro Section is now at $80 and the Amateurs are at $60. e-transfer to my email address halbond@sympatico.ca or paypal to chess@uoguelph.ca

Kindly remember that all entries must be paid in advance, and pairings will be posted Friday night, April 27, as soon as I get back from setting up - probably 10ish.
