The top two boys<br \/>\n      and top two girls would go for each grade. The tournament was at the<br \/>\n      Simcoe County District School Board. It was from about 9:30 to 2:15. The<br \/>\n      amount of players in each group were ranged from about 10 to almost 20.<br \/>\n      The grades were split in to boys and girls. Parkview sent 11 people. I<br \/>\n      was one of them. Parkview did O.K. but didn&#8217;t win any medals. For each<br \/>\n      grade and gender they were doing a draw for this glass chess, checkers,<br \/>\n      and backgammon set. I won the set for the grade 4 boys! The points for<br \/>\n      the Parkview team were from 9 to about 14. Some of the Parkview team was<br \/>\n      interviewed by a camera man for Roger&#8217;s Television.
