The October Edition of the Open Chess Tournament started yesterday at the Sibalom Water District office. A total of 30 participants joined the tournament. The cash prizes were sponsored by the Sibalom Water District to mark the occasion of its 14th year anniversary.
Hon. Prospero Picahay Jr., LWUA Chairman and NCFP President, was not able to attend due to more important and pressing matters. He was requested by President Arroyo to assist in the relief operations in northern Luzon. He , however, called that his heart is in Sibalom at that moment.
The ceremonial opening moves was done by 13-year old Lou Vincent Baculna, a West Visayan Meet champion and Palaro veteran, and Engr. Jonathan De Gracai, President of the Antique Chess Society and General Manager of Sibalom Water District.
