---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The tournament is again being sponsored by Royce & Associates, and the
program is being managed

by Pat Bowyer with a lot of help from
John Burke and Bruce’s terrific friends at Royce, who have spearheaded this event from the start.

If you don't play chess, come anyway! You can kibitz, visit a bit, and
share in that spirit of affection for Bruce that brings us all together. I am
sure he would be pleased to see this event continue, and it has become a
welcome tradition in the New York chess world.

Please note that there is a break on entry fees for both Marshall and
Manhattan members again this year.

Both Sonetta and I will be there for the entire tournament, and we look
forward to seeing all of you.
