On Saturday, July 5th, 2008, the Exposition Park Chess Club
[
http://chess.expoparkla.com/] hosted a free, unrated, three-round
chess tournament at the Jefferson Branch Library [
http://www.lapl.org/
branches/Branch.php?bID=17] in Los Angeles.
The tournament (lamentably competing with the July 4th holiday!)
consisted of one quad, which was assisted by Christophe Carter as
house player. There were, therefore, a total of three players who were
attracted to our club's tournament.
The names of the winners, together with their winning scores,
were as follows:
1st Quad: There was a tie for First Place between Vartan Ghazarian and
Michael Magturo, both with a final score of 2-1.
When not conducting tournaments, our club conducts a wide variety
of chess-related activities which include, but are not limited to,
social games, analysis of games, simultaneous matches against a rated
Master, and general chess instruction.
Our meetings are on Saturdays, from 1:00 to 4:30 PM at the
Jefferson Branch Library. The Library's address and contact
information is:
