Hi again, for local players who have not yet registered/paid, I expect to be at the RA chess club tonight from about 7pm to at least 930pm. It would be best to catch me before the round starts at 730pm. If you really must see me after that, please wait until it is my turn to move, out of respect for my opponent.
Registrations/payments are still welcome by cheque, especially by mail. But for next Thursday evening, January 21st, payments would need to be in cash.
Yours in chess,
Aris Marghetis
- Organizer/TD, FIDE Arbiter
- EOCA President, CFC Governor

----- they can be phoned/texted in the hour before every single round
----- they have a current CFC membership by the time of first pairings
