From Aug 15-19, 2012, the Chess'n Math Association will be hosting our 27th Anniversary Superfest celebration in the Laurentians, at Hotel Le Chantecler ( www.lechantecler.com ), approximately 45 minutes north of Montreal.
After consulting with many people, this is what we have come up with:
This will be a 5-round event with 1 game per day to allow everyone to enjoy this incredible tourist location where we have negotiated an incredible hotel rate!
There will be lots of chess of course...but we will also be offering special activities:
Golf anyone?
Who is the best chess playing golfer around? There is a 9-hole par 3 golf course on-site...Tiger Woods look out :)
SWIM!
We have a private beach...who is our best chess-playing swimmer?
LOTS OF NAUTICAL SPORTS
...Competions for chess players in all domains!
VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENT!
Yes...this will be awesome!
TENNIS ANYONE?
Yes the Charbonneau family know this game almost as well as they play chess...you better be up to the game! I spoke with GM Pascal Charbonneau earlier this week and he indicated that he will try to play in the chess tournament ...and if he does...then he wants the tennis title...at the very least :)
SQUASH?
Do not get squashed in the action but do play :)
HORSEBACK RIDING!
Yes, enjoy the local trails and...is there anything better than those trails through the forest?
HIKING IS YOUR SPEED?
Well...how about a hike...looking for chess clues? With prizes?
BICYCLE?
Yes you can bring your own or rent a mountain bike...and yes we have a contest there too!
We will be announcing all the details by Jan 15, 2012...plan to be with us!
