Any entrant may request a half-point bye for
any one round. Monty will be chief tournament director and will not compete. He
will try to enlist a "house player" for each section so that no regular entrant
is forced to miss a game. The game results will be rated for both the USCF and
Vermont rating systems. USCF membership is required for all entrants; no
other membership is required. For more information, including
availability of reasonably priced hotel sleeping rooms in Middlebury, contact
Monty via telephone or email.
