HSPCCC'S SOUVENIR BOOK - 2008

 

 

 

 

 

The Club’s Souvenir Book Lands Some Super Stars  -  Senator, Barrack Obama, Mayor. Richard M.Daley, and Congressman, Bobby Rush

 

The 2008 APCA Souvenir Book prepared by HSPCCC will be, we believe, the best tournament book ever printed.  Thanks to the hard work of the Souvenir Book staff, we have acknowledgements from some of the country’s foremost political leaders. Their words of encouragements, acknowledgements, and pictures are treasures to behold.

 

The office of the presumptive presidential nominee, and the current U.S. Democratic Senator from Illinois, Barrack Obama, has sent us an acknowledged statement along with a picture to be displayed in the Book. 

 

The office of Mayor Richard M. Dailey, the 6th-term, current mayor of Chicago, has also sent us his congratulatory words of Welcome.  His statement was also accompanied with and official mayoral picture.

 

Additionally, the office of 7th term Democratic Congressman Bobby Rush who represents the state of Illinois (which includes Chicago) has sent his picture with words of encouragements as well

 

Also, the Club has received words of Greetings from a number of local and state officials acknowledging the 42 Annual APCA National Tournament.   Words of thanks, to these leaders, are offered by the Club President, Mr. Stoney Burke and all of it’s membership.

 

The completion of the multi-colored 90 paged 2008 APCA Souvenir Book is imminent and will be available by tournament time – July 13, 2008.  SINCE THERE WILL BE A LIMITED NUMBER OF COPIES PRINTED, ALL ARE ASKED TO MAKE THEIR PURCHASES EARLY.  The price will be $10.00 for the public.  Each participants in the 42 Annual Tournament will, of course, be given a free copy.  Also, Those who purchased an Ad of $50.00 or more will be given a free copy.  Club members will pay $5.00 if they don’t participate in the tournament.

Dear Friends:

It is a pleasure to welcome all guests and attendees gathered for the 42nd Annual National American Pool Checkers Association (APCA) Tournament. To the Homan Square Pool Checkers and Chess Club of Chicago (HSPCCC), I extend my best wishes as you host this competitive event in the Chicago Metro area.

 

As competitors  and spectators from across the country convene for this event, there is potential for excitement and enthusiasm. Participants in this tournament are provided with an opportunity to showcase their skills and competitive spirits. The APCA’s efforts to engage young people and to fortify their character and self-esteem through such challenging activities are truly noteworthy.

 

Please accept my wishes for an enjoyable tournament and much success in your future work.

 

Sincerely,
