2011 Missouri State Gayp Open
The Missouri State GAYP Tournament was held Saturday, June 18,
at the Joyce Raye Patterson Senior Center, St. Joseph, MO. At least it started
there. When we arrived at the Senior Center, the elevator didn't work. We waited
a little bit and then carried all the supplies up the stairs. We set up in the
room we were to play in. We started the coffee, no electricity in the outlets.
We located another room to get the coffee started. By now we knew most of the
building was without electricity. The players started the first round and before
it was done, we were told the building would be closed by 10:00 a.m. and we
would have to vacate the premises. All players followed us as we headed to our
house to complete the tournament. *Ken Kelly and George Stallsworth played a play-off round. Congratulations to Ken
Kelly who won the tie-breaker round with a win and a draw (3 points) and George
got (1 point) for his draw. Our new 2011 Missouri GAYP State Champion is Ken
Kelly. All players were from Missouri. No
prize money was given.
