No Chess Canada day + Classical announcement

 Hi everyone, this is a reminder that there is no chess tomorrow as it is Canada Day. 

Additionally, when we resume on the 8th of July, we will be trying a new time control format to get one long (classical) game. The time control will likely be something like 60+15. If all goes well, we could start doing it once per month (first Monday of each month). The rest of the weeks will still be the standard 10+5 mini-tourneys.

Happy Canada Day! 

P.S: On the 8th as it is classical, you're invited to bring a pen or pencil and a scoresheet to record your game. I'll try to bring extras to give away as well.
