Something new this year, since Richard Beckwith approached Crist Miller about merging the Ohio State Tournament with the popular Amish Tournament. The tournament will be held in the large building on the right side of Crist & Rosanna Miller's home at 10250 S. Kansas Road, Fredericksburg, Ohio 44627 (Scenic Valley Supply LLC) map, on Friday & Saturday, August 9th and 10th. Donation / entry fee is $30. Registration opens at 12:00 pm (noon / lunch), and we will begin at 1:00 pm the afternoon of the 9th, continuing into Saturday. This year we play 3-Move. We will play 8 total rounds of Swiss with 4 rounds Friday and 4 rounds Saturday, with play starting at 8:00 am (Sat.). Masters playing Masters will use clocks to keep rounds from exceeding 2 hours. Snacks & drinks provided, with free breakfast and lunch on Saturday. Joe LoConti will continue to back tournament up to $500 for some prizes. High finisher will be recognized as Ohio State Champion and wins a donated craft item. There is a new Sleep Inn hotel in Mt. Hope about 4 miles away https://mthopesleepinn.com/.

I will not make it this year, but will try next year. By then, I should be ready to dethrone the Russian Bear.

Joe, you can't dethrone me for my title "Ohio State Champion" unless you move to Ohio, and you also can't dethrone me for title "the Russian Bear" because you are not Russian. But there are few titles I owe which you can challenge - for instance: "11 man ballot World Champion" or "Father of THREE"Chexhero wrote:to dethrone the Russian Bear.
