Last Minute reminders for States

Some last minute reminders for States:

-Bus leaves from the Briarwood parking lot, near the Sears Auto Center at 7am. Be there no later than 6:45am.
-If students have not filled out the homework sheet or turned in the rules sheet, bring them to the bus Wednesday morning. These sheets are attached to this email.
-If students have Equations, On-Sets, Linguishtik, or Wff games they want to bring, please make sure to write their name and school on the games. We do need extra games, so any games brought by students will be greatly appreciated.
-If you are sending medication along with the students, please include medication instructions and put it in a plastic bag with the student's name and the medication name.
-I will not be riding the bus, as I will already be in Grand Rapids. Vivek and Dawn Barron, our parent chaperone will be riding with the kids. If you are going to be late to the bus, please give Vivek a call so that we can plan accordingly.
-If there are any weather delays, we will communicate through this website. Also keep checking back here during the tournament as we will be trying to post results as they happen.

Thanks
Eric

Any one can move at any time, so long as they properly introduce themselves. Every couple of moves we will post the board with all the moves made so far. Anyone can challenge at any time except after their own move.
