Canadian Open 8 Results

Thank you to everyone who came for coming to Calgary and supporting our tournament. Even though the numbers were smaller this year, we really enjoyed so many rounds of top-notch scrabble against very worthy opponents. You helped make our tournament a success!

A special thank you goes out to Rod Weis for giving up his weekend to direct, for a modest stipend, and let the rest of us focus on playing. I personally couldn't have won this one without you, Rod.
