| Tomorrow’s meeting: We will post pairings for each round to ensure that each person finds a game. Each month will have different time controls (this month will be G/10 | Increment 5). We should have time for a 5-6 games easily assuming we have enough participants. |

Just become a free member to influence the club’s direction!!) |
Want to learn from a former World Champion!?
Anatoly Karpov, World Champion from 1975-1985, is possibly coming to Alabama to hold a 2-day chess camp. We don’t have a lot of details, so we don’t need a big commitment. What we do need is for everyone to vote below to let us know if you’d be willing to sign up for a 2-day chess camp with GM Karpov as the instructor for a fee of $150. This is a great opportunity to help Alabama have a bigger chess footprint on the US map!
I voted yes, but that’s as long as the camp isn’t on a Wednesday. Otherwise, I can clear my schedule accordingly with enough advance.
