**********************************************
Happy New Year and Best Wishes for a fun
and
active chess community in the
GTCL
As a new year approaches, I take this
opportunity to thank everyone who helped
and is helping us in improving the chess
community in the Greater Toronto Area.
Our major achievement of the year has
been the obtaining of excellent
facilities for GTCL events at Tartu
College at 310 Bloor. Because this space
had to be scheduled, the impact of these
facilities will be visible in this 2004
year, starting in February, with major
weekend tournaments almost every month
for the rest of the year! This will
allow us quality space, good playing
conditions, and the capability of
hosting larger events with 100-250
participants.
Our goal is to also make events more fun
for all participants. Our GTCL Capped
Team Tournament on November 29th,
was the first event at the new
facilities. The competition was tough,
and the free pizza and drinks added to a
good social time during a short break. A
Kitchener Team won the event! I
challenge all GTCL clubs to send teams
for our next Capped Team Event in March.
We are looking for sponsors to help with
food and support for these events.
Another goal is to have more GTCL Chess
Clubs participate in GTCL activities. In
this regard I offer all GTCL Clubs the
opportunity to raise money for their
club and to run one or more of the
upcoming events. The GTCL will arrange
to space, and help. A 12% TD fee can be
allocated to the TD or to the club who
is sponsoring and running the event.
The GTCL will advertise and guarantee
the top prizes for a number of the
events.
If you are interested contact me, Barry
Thorvardson, at 905-846-8467.
To
enhance attendance, the GTCL will be
doing something like the Lotteries and
the bingo halls do. Specifically that we
reserve a percentage of the tournament
proceeds towards bonus cash prizes in
each section. If the winner of the
section wins all their games, they win
the top section prize plus the bonus.
Over the year different sections will
miss earning the bonus, which will be
added to that sections bonus for the
next event in the series. For example if
the Top Open Prize was $700 plus a bonus
of $300 for a possible $1,000. If the
next three tournaments miss the bonus,
the top prize might increase to $700
plus $1,200 bonus to a total of $1,900.
Just like more people play the lottery
when the prize is higher, hopefully more
people will start to play. Only *LOTTO
BONUS* events will have this
extra support.

From 1999 until the end of
2002, Dutton Chess
ran professionally organized, monthly
CFC-rated Toronto Chess Tournaments.
We offered large class prizes,
demonstration boards, prompt computer
pairings in air-conditioned facilities.
The
Dutton Chess Club on
Bayview, at one time had almost
200 Members in the year 2000.
Continued declining tournament
attendance, coupled with a dramatic drop
in the Club membership to less that
70
Members, resulted in the
PERMANENT CLOSING
OF THE DUTTON CHESS CLUB ON BAYVIEW
after the 32nd Active Chess Tournament
on December 21st, 2002.
