Chess Players Rule!

You make excellent executive decisions, relish complexity, and
foresee what is most crucial and relevant. We, the devoted, daring,
and driven members of the Exposition Park Chess Club [http://
chess.expoparkla.com] consider you a kindred spirit. We warmly invite
your participation in our chess club.
This coming first Sunday of the month, November 4th, 2007, will
be the occasion of a free, unrated, open, three-round chess
tournament. Cash prizes will *NOT* be awarded, but the names of the
winners will be published in the Los Angeles area print media, posted
transnationally in this major, chess-related Usenet newsgroup
[rec.games.chess.misc], as well as celebrated worldwide on our chess
club's Web site [http://chess.expoparkla.com/]. Indeed, early
registration (at least 48 hours in advance!) for the tournament is
easiest by visiting our Web site; Follow the link "online tournament
signup".
Players of all skill levels, from the greenest beginner to rated
Master, are invited to compete in this tournament. Tournament
registration, on the day of the tournament, begins at 1:00 PM and ends
promptly at 1:30 PM. The tournament will take place at the Exposition
Park Library [http://www.lapl.org/branches/06.html], located in close
vicinity to the University of Southern California [http://www.lapl.org/
branches/maps/06-m.html].
The Library's address and contact information is:

Exposition Park Regional Library
3665 S. Vermont Avenue
Los Angeles, California 90007
Tel: 1 323 732 0169
Fax: 1 213 612 0540

The Library, with its ample lot parking, opens on Sunday at 1:00
PM, the same time at which in-person tournament registration begins.
Competitors should arrive early so that no delays occur.
By playing in this tournament you will entertain movie stars,
counsel the mighty, slay evil dragons, fly to the Moon, resurrect
Antonio Villaraigosa's marriage - well, maybe not the Villaraigosa/
marriage thing.
Let nothing deter you! Come to this Sunday's November 4th
tournament for a most challenging time of chess playing!

P.S.: Because of the large attendance that we've had at various of our
previous tournaments, it is strongly advised that if you want to be
certain of being able to play, you should BRING YOUR OWN CHESS SET,
BOARD, AND CLOCK!
