Open pairs today at 12:30! If you're looking for a partner, drop me a note. You might also try the Partnership Desk in the tournament. If you have a friend from "out of town" who'd like to play, let me know well in advance so I can add them to our Friends list. If you're curious, I try to track how many visiting players we have. I track on a monthly basis -- ACBL is tracking on a weekly basis -- but my count is pretty flat throughout the month. I'm currently running about 6.5% visitors. The official limit is 15%. So it's okay. :) We do have a handful of players from out of the area who have become "virtual" locals. They enjoy playing in our games, and meeting and playing with familiar players from the local clubs. I think that's delightful. :) See you at 12:30!
