March 2014 Fundraiser
A dedicated group of ten players attended this Active tournament in support of Canada's Chess Olympiad Team. It was held at the Victoria Chess Club on Sunday March 16th. Overall winner was Ross Richardson (4.0/5.0). Ross's only loss was to Jason Cao in Round One. Jason, who was handicapped by the need to take two byes to play basketball, finished second (3.5/5.0). First U1700 was eight year old rising star Rowan James (3.5/5.0) followed closely by veteran Bill Tate (3.0/5.0)
Additional donations were received from Mark S. Dutton, Jeff Harrison, Duncan Haines, The Gengs, Ken Forman, and Peter Kappel.
$160 was raised for the Olympiad Team.
