A special thanks to Alan Grunwald, owner of the Belair Watch company, who has agreed to donate over 20 very high quality Swiss watches to the International Collegiate Program.

Two of these watches will be engraved with the IC logo and the rest will be given to high school and college students who win qualifying events on line and on apps. We have many other donations including books, boards, and discounts which will we also announce separately and put on our web site once we get the logo and program established.

And we need more! We expect to have hundreds of students involved in this program within a year, and hopefully more. We need more money for scholarships and travel and more prizes to reward and excite these kids for learning and playing backgammon.
