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 consider you a kindred spirit. We warmly invite your participation in our chess club.

This coming first Sunday of the month, June 1st, 2008, 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 June 8th edition chess column of the Los Angeles Times newspaper, posted transnationally in a major, chess-related Usenet newsgroup, as well as celebrated worldwide on our chess club's Web site. 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, located in close vicinity to the University of Southern California.

The Library's address and contact information is:

Exposition Park Regional Library
3665 S. Vermont Ave.
Los Angeles, CA 90007
Tel: 323 732 0169
Fax: 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 pursue the glorious, ascend to greatness, found a country, define a new triumph, elect Ralph Nader as President - well maybe not the Nader/President thing.

Let nothing deter you! Come to the Sunday, June 1st, 2008 tournament for a most challenging time of chess playing!

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!
