nothing like responsible and sensitive reporting ...John Acker says.

I agree, aint it a pity that kinda "responsible and sensitive reporting" dont sell papers any more??

I have been in communication with Charles & Deloris Walker. I share some excerpts regarding the ICHF rebuilding process. Charles also asked for my help with the 2007 ICHF annual. -- Rich

...THE ANSWER IS YES WE WILL PUT OUT A 2007 ICHF CHECKERS MAGAZINE AND YES WE NEED ALL THE ITEMS, STORIES, CHECKER GAMES, PROBLEMS ETC THAT YOU CAN PROVIDE. ANY PICTURES, ETC THAT ANYONE WOULD CONTRIBUTE WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

GOOD NEWS: EVERY ADVERSITY CARRIES WITH IT THE SEED OF AN EQUIVALENT OR GREATER BENEFIT.WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF REPAIRING HALL 11 AND CLEANING UP THE DEBRIS LEFT FROM THE FIRE.

WE ALSO PLAN TO REBUILD WHAT EVER PORTION IS NEEDED TO HOUSE PLAYERS AND CONTINUE THE OBJECTIVES OF THE ICHF.

AFTER REPAIRS WE WILL REPOSITION THE CHECKER MEMRABILLA UPSTAIRS IN HALL 11. WE WILL THEN HAVE A TOURNAMENT AND OPEN HOUSE FOR CHECKER PLAYERS.

PERHAPS THE REFURBISHED HALL 11 WITH IMPROVEMENTS AND ADDITIONS WOULD MAKE A FINE LOCATION FOR A FUTURE WCDF QUALIFYING TOURNAMENT.

PLEASE FEEL FREE TO PASS THIS INFO ON TO THE CHECKER FRATERNAL.

ENTHUSIASTICALLY,
CHARLES.
