AGENDA
MAINE SCHOLASTIC CHESS ORGANIZING COMMITTEE
MEETING OF JANUARY 6, 2007

Agenda Items:

1. Updates:

a. Entry Forms
b. TDs
c. Trophies
d. Other

2. Forms have starting times of 9 AM for Elem/JH Teams and 9:30 for HS (a relic of when they were on different weekends). Do we want to modify since the HS generally takes longer?

3. The novice Elem and JH has been traditionally combined. Are numbers sufficient now to allow them to be separated? Discussion (discretion of the TD?). (There have been concerns raised by parents who see JH vs Elem matchups.)

4. Notice of tournaments and availability entry forms to be posted to web pages.

5. E-mailing list to as many schools as possible through the coaches list (initiated).

6. Other business/discussion. (Report on trip to NY for Chess in the Schools).
