First time evar: I'm offering the first 20 parents the opportunity to earn free entry by volunteering 5 hours at the event. If you are interested, and would like to take this opportunity, please email me ASAP.
As you know this event is the biggest scholastic event, and I'm looking for volunteers and staff who will help me make sure that the event goes smooth, and can help as many parents and players to answer questions, solve problems, and make sure all is good everywhere.
Please email me to Judit@bayareachess.com and I'll reply back with possible positions and areas where you could help.
