The Chess season is winding down and there are only a few tournaments left this season.
- April 5&6 WSCF K-8 State Championships - Wisconsin Dells (Mr. Reese not attending)
- April 12 Rose Glen Elementary Waukesha
- April 19 Ronald Reagan Elementary New Berlin
- April 26 3rd Annual All Girls Tournament University School of Milwaukee
- May 3 Mill Valley will host a tournament
- May 9-11 USCF National Elementary Championships Pittsburgh, PA
The next tournament that Mr. Reese will be attending is April 12th at Rose Glen. We have decided not to attend the WSCF Championships held in the Dells. A few families have expressed interest in attending, and a few may have already registered. This tournament requires advance payment with registration either by mail or online at wisconsinscholasticchess.org, so if you decide to participate you will need to take care of registration on your own. If you have questions or need help getting through the process I will gladly help if you give me a call.
The Reagan tournament is not a WSCF event. It is being directed by Randy Bubolz, the chess coach for the New Berlin Elementary Schools. If you want to participate and have a sporting event commitment that day, you can request a half point bye for the round you will miss. He is also offering a USCF Rated Beginner Open in addition to the Scholastic event. If you are a USCF member with a rating under 1200, child or adult, you can play in this section.
All the remaining tournaments will have a K-3 Division. I will send a reminder about the April 12th, Rose Glen Tournament after the first of the month.
Thank you,
Pam Reese
Mill Valley Chess Team
