A Look Into November 2018

Clocks were set back this week, but always keep forging ahead.  Every restful slumber, every waking hour, every gain and plunder, every grab of power.  Claim yours this weekend as the US Class Championships, there is still time to sign up.  It is not often a National tournament comes to MN, so this is your chance.  Be your own change, it was apparent this week.  Congrats to all who have served, continue to serve, and those who are newly elected.  

More changes ahead, and more to look forward to.  Next week the Castle will hold an Exerciser Quad, and the School Chess Association will hold a special All-Girls section in addition to their standard tournament structure.  The SCA has been doing this on an annual basis, and has been well attended in previous years.  

The Associations two largest tournaments will see a change of venue, we will be moving to the Bloomington DoubleTree. The MN Open will resume back to its usual date of Presidents Day Weekend, February 15-17, 2019, and the State Scholastic will be moved up to March 2-3, 2019.  Tournament information is listed, and close to being finalized.  More details will follow, but make sure you have these dates set.  This has been your Look Into November for 2018, thank you for your time.
