Australian Junior Chess League June 2011 Bulletin
In this bulletin:
AusJCL bulletin moves to Google Groups
The AusJCL bulletin has been moved to the AusJCL Google Group, see:
http://groups.google.com/group/ausjcl
This gives both the members and AusJCL more control and security over the email list. The AusJCL Google Group has been set up as an announcement only group. You should receive a monthly email bulletin and maybe the odd group announcement.
All the old bulletin subscribers have been moved over to the new group. See the bottom of the bulletin for how to join.

Kuala Lumpur Open, September 5-10. Details at http://www.klchess.com/.
Already a lot of Aussie juniors have registered.
- For those ditching the Australian Junior Chess Championships, there should be new cheap fares from Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne to Queenstown available in early July - check out the airline websites.
- Reward (negotiable!) to whoever first puts me in direct
contact with the present owner of a 100-year-old complete chess
set, Staunton pattern, exceptionally large, magnificent, and a
joy to heft. The set has an astonishing pedigree/provenance --
keywords: CUMMINS and JACKSON. The owner purchased it privately
in NW London UK about 2007 and subsequently emigrated to
Australia. (S)he may not play chess, but will show the set.
Contact: John ROYCROFT royc...@btinternet.com
