Greetings,
The Colorado Springs Chess Club held round 4 of the August Swiss last night. You can see the standings in the newsletter. Also, you can try to guess what Mike Smith hates the most:
“I hate New Mexico!”
“I hate white socks!”
“I hate the Kissing Knights logo!”
“I hate gift cards from Will Wolf!”
“I hate LM Brian Wall’s shirt!”
