Unit 487 Portland OregonAfter only 30 years Alan Johnson is leaving as the Unit’s Co-Tournament Manager.
I won my first Portland sectional fractional point October 5, 1991. Alan’s first?
Amazing! Paul Walker will carry on.

Plenty of parking in the Montgomery Park lot (ignore the posted 2-hour limits).
NOTE: We will NOT be offering lunch on Sunday. Also since so many players request ending as early as possible on Sunday evening we will have a modified break of one hour (as opposed to the 1 1/2 hours on Saturday). There are a few nearby lunch options but not many. We would like to encourage you to bring lunch; you are welcome to use the refrigerators in the kitchen there. We will have a variety of snacks available for the afternoon session

Fee Change The tournament fee will be increased to $12 per session. This increased cost will provide for the maximum amount of hospitality possible, which will include coffee/tea during the morning session and limited snacks throughout the day (as much as we can buy via Elephants’ catering with the money available). As always, the objective is not to make a profit, but to offer the members of our unit the opportunity to play in tournaments earning silver points and playing with and against a wider variety of opponents than what they might experience in the club games.
Sunday Lunch A lunch from Elephants Delicatessen will be available for purchase Sunday.
