Found out today that the Hardee's dining area is still closed and there isn't a set date yet for re-opening. ![]()

For now, I have reserved Conference Room 1 at the Joplin Public Library from 1-4:45-ish on April 25th, May 2nd and May 9th. There should be enough room to handle our normal club meetings and masks are currently required if you want to attend.![]()

Unfortunately, they limit the number of times in a calendar year a group can reserve rooms and on May 16th they do not have available space. So, in a couple of weeks I will check with Hardee's again and we may have to come up with a different location after. ![]()

But we have a scheduled location for the next three weeks.

A special thanks to the MSU Chess Club on securing the location and providing boards and clocks for the event.
Fifth and final round has just begun. In round 4, Zach Schuh was able to overcome the leader and now leads with 3.5, two players are right behind at 3.0. A win guarantees first and a draw shared first, at least, in the Upper section.![]()

In the Reserve, Adnan Izadpanah leads with 2.0 and plays his closest scoring competitor Justin Stumpf at 1.5. A win or draw guarantees clear first.
