A warm thank you to the many BGOnliners who supported the Illinois State Championships last weekend. Our attendance increased in all divisions, attracting players from as far away as Germany, Lebanon and Peru, and the side events expanded as well. The lecture on The Opening Game by my adorable husband David Rockwell was attended by more than 40 participants - half the players in the tournament! We couldn't enjoy the success we've experienced without the support of you, the terrific champions of the game we enjoy so much. THANK YOU!!! - Linda Rockwell
