Quark VII will be contested this Saturday, May 17 at the Best Western Sterling Hotel Suites at 242 E. Woodlawn Rd. (on the Trolley Line!) The private and very quiet room is an excellent venue for chess! The last event attracted 16 players. The room could easily accommodate 48. We are hoping for at least 24 on May 17. The CCC continues to boast the largest payback (75%) of any club in the area. E-mail lelandfue@yahoo.com and place your name on the "Intend to Participate" list. And, if you make a last second decision or you're running late, call 704-778-3211 and you will be included in the pairings. I hope to see many smiling faces this Saturday at Best Western. LF
