Barn Blitz Update!!!

Please RSVP to seghers@gmail.com!

On Sunday, August 30 at 1PM (watch the site for updates), we will be holding the prestigious 2009 Muskego Barn Blitz at the fabulous luxurious Seghers Barn Resort (watch out for rusty nails and mice).

This event will be a 10-round, 5-minute blitz (fast chess) tournament. There will be a small entry fee of $5 per player, which will cover a few trophies. We will be asking for RSVPs and volunteers, and some snacks, etc. We are considering three divisions- two divisions for 16 and under (as of date of tournament)- Under 800 USCF and Unrated, and Over 800 USCF. The third division will be OPEN for all players of any age. Young players can "play up" into the Open division if they choose.
You DONT HAVE TO PLAY CHESS to come and have fun! Weather permitting, we will also have swimming, paddleboat rides, frisbee, etc., between rounds and for any non-players and parents. One last party before school starts (ugh!)!

We did this a few years ago and it was a lot of fun! Watch for any changes on this Evite. Please RSVP with numbers, dishes to pass, etc. Hope you can make it.

- Mark, Sue, Reid and Evan Seghers
