Dear Chess Enthusiasts,,

It is still possible to get the early entry fee for our outdoor chess championship tournament at Bryant Park coming this Sunday June 14th.  The entry fee will remain $39 until midnight tonight.  After that it will increase to $45 until Saturday at 9pm. Finally, it will be $55 the morning of the event.

We hope you are enjoying the weather as the end of the school year approaches; and we would like to take advantage of this weather and offer our first of two outdoor summer tournaments at Bryant Park.
 
The venue is centrally located in Midtown Manhattan at one of New York City's most famous well known parks.  It will take place along side the grand Fountain Plaza and is sure to be a good time.
 
The Under 1800 section is offering 80% of entry fees returned as prizes and includes Adults as well. This year it is 3 rounds at G/60.
 
The rest of the sections do not include adults and offer o
ur usual assortment of over 100 giant awards, plus our very popular Grandmaster Cup to be awarded to 1st and 2nd Place in every section (including Beginner).
  
Just to remind you, our Beginner section (K-1) is unrated by the US Chess Federation.  Any players participating in the Beginner section do not have to pay USCF dues and do not need to be a USCF member. 

All other sections will remain USCF rated as always.

Hope to see you there on June 14th.
