Many many volunteers contributed
to making this event happen.
In particular
we would like to thank entries managers Andy and Margaret Burch who maintained good humour in the face of many phone calls, emails, forgotton forms and late cheques! We are blessed with many loyal families who still turn out to help with this event despite their own children having outgrown it - Andrea Cumming, Louise Lambert, Sue Carter, David Fryer, Paula & Andy Payne.
It was a bumper U7 entry this year and even the stoic Colin Harding
had to call for the cavalry. Many thanks to Victoria Finnegan for stepping in at a minutes notice.
As usual, the Sussex
Junior Chess catering machine were kept busy all day - thanks to Isabel Keen and team.
Finally, thanks to the
army of parents and friends who gave their time freely on the
day
- cooking and serving
refreshments, helping with registration, fielding enquires, and
serving as pairers and arbiters.
