Support Minnesota International Masters to achieve Grandmaster titles!
Minnesota State Chess Association (MSCA) and the Minnesota Blizzard Team are organizing the first Grandmaster norm tournament in Minnesota from August 23 to 27 at Plymouth Crowne Plaza to provide opportunities for the three local International Masters to achieve the three Grandmaster norms required to become Grandmasters. As you all know norm tournaments need substantial financial resources and we are calling for donations from the chess community, families/relatives and friends. No matter what the amount is, your donation will make a huge difference and is greatly appreciated.
