Please note that if you were planning to take advantage of the $15 August discount in person at the RA chess club, that this Thursday, August 13th, will be the last time in August that you can catch me at the RA Centre. After that, please mail your registration and payment, so it is postmarked by August 31st.
On that note, about a dozen people have asked me what postmarked means, so here is what I meant. When a letter is processed by Canada Post, they stamp the date onto the envelope, mostly in the upper righthand corner. To make a certain postmark date, you have to mail your letter by early that day.
For your information, here again is the latest list of players already registered :
