Notes: 1) The schedule is always subject to change. 2) The Tuesday Quads usually start on the first Tuesday each month. No Tuesday Quads in October due to the Club Championship. The November Tuesday Quads start on the second Tuesday to avoid starting on the same day as the presidential election. 3) The Sunday Quads is usually on the third Sunday each month. The February Sunday Quads is on the fourth Sunday to avoid competing with the Oregon Closed. The December Sunday Quads is on the second Sunday to avoid being on the same weekend as the Game in 60. 4) The Game in 60 is usually on the last Saturday each month. The November Game in 60 is on the second to last Saturday to avoid conflicting with the Thanksgiving weekend and the Washington Class Championships. The December Game in 60 is on the second to last Saturday to avoid being on the day after Christmas. 5) All of the above tournaments are sponsored and run by the Portland Chess Club except this year’s Oregon Closed, Oregon Senior Open, and Oregon Class Championships which are sponsored and run by the Oregon Chess Federation. This year’s Oregon Open is co-sponsored and run with the Oregon Chess Federation.
