Hi chess fans, in order to reduce the number of emails, I am sending this email out only once every 2 to 3 months. Your email address is not visible to anyone else, and I never give out any email addresses. However, if you would prefer to no longer receive this email, please advise me as convenient.
This email combines information on most of the chess activities I organize. Please skip to the sections that are of interest to you :
EOCA (Eastern Ontario Chess Association) events :
(including the 2009 Ontario Open, in Ottawa over the Victoria Day long weekend!)
(includes series of regular weekend tournaments & single afternoon Active events)
My next EOCA event will be the RA Spring Open, a regular weekend tournament, to be held at the RA Centre, on the weekend of March 20th-22nd. For all of my regular weekend tournaments now, note that all players are rated both CFC & FIDE, and that we provide simplified convenient email registration.
Sunday chess club for children, weekly in Barrhaven :
The upcoming Spring 2009 session is scheduled to run from April 19th to June 21st, and will likely return to our traditional Sunday evening day/time slot. If you are already part of the ongoing Winter session, then on Sunday, March 29th, you will receive your registration form for the Spring session. If you are not currently part of the ongoing Winter session, then as soon as convenient, please email me to send you your registration form for the Spring session.
weekday home school chess club, in Centrepointe area:
Thanks to all the families who have expressed interest, and it seems we have enough healthy interest to proceed. There have been some logistical challenges finding the right location, but we hope to be contacting the interested families with a proposed schedule for Spring, or then for Autumn.
private lessons, chess tubes, Coakley chess books for kids :
Please contact me as per your convenience. I am proud to be affiliated with IM (International Master) Tom O'Donnell, the top chess teacher in Ottawa!
All the best,
Aris Marghetis, Organizer/TD
EOCA President, OCA/CFC Governor
