at the International Cafe [ IC.htm ]
I am looking for 8 players instead of 16 due to Covid-19 rules .
Chess Players can email me to register
The 1st 4 Lady Chess Players that email me to register before the day of the Vera Chess Tournament Omaha 2020 , I will pay for food and drink up to $20.00 before play begins rich@rcto.us
I must have at least 1 Lady Chess Player registered by the end of the day 07-22-Thu or this might be postponed until 10-16-Sat .
I need at least 1 Lady Chess Player and at least 2 Chess Players to be ready to play before 4:00pm or this might be postponed until 10-16-Sat .
This is my last attempt at the $1900.00 in prizes for the Lady Chess Players .
