We've been through a lot over the last year and the setbacks have been discouraging. But here is a reminder of just some of the things we've accomplished despite the many obstacles we endured. Although our special election of new officers was confirmed as legal, we patiently wait for official recognition by both the VIOC and FIDE. This may be confusing and frustrating to our members but be assured that your membership is valid, and your voting rights remain secure.
Keep the faith!
