Farewell and a big Thank You to Yan

As many of you know, Yan Drabek - our Webmaster, Maker of boards, ex-President, and the person whose incredible energy is responsible for so much of what makes this a great club - is leaving the area. We will surely miss her! But we hope to still see her from time to time.

The task of Webmaster now falls to our Treasurer and Gazette-poster. In order to reduce the workload of posting, starting in July the game results will no longer be posted on this blog. Instead, there is now a direct link to the ACBL website showing the results in the same format, or you can view the results on the CommonGame's website in a slightly different format.
