Chess is back after the Presidents’ Day hiatus! Come on out and catch a game or two. We’ll run a free tournament if we have enough interested members.
Please wish our members playing in the Amateur Team South tournament luck. They’ll be departing this Friday for the weekend event.
We’re just over 1/3 towards our max capacity for the 2019 Quick and Blitz State Championship, so don’t delay. Register here now so you don’t get locked out of the fun!
Our very own David Hayes has offered to provide the club with an informative lecture on a very intriguing topic on Monday, August 5th at 6pm in the Library’s Auditorium on the first floor. Don’t miss it!
If any of our chess playing membership has experience with transitioning an organization to non-profit status, please let us know. Our club is interested in heading that direction.
Officers and Members at Large are up for annual reelection on Monday, June 24th during our regularly scheduled meeting. If you’re interested in voting, please be sure to attend.
Did you see our Cave Chess article in Chess Life about our yearly scholastic event and want to get in on the fun as an adult? If so, make sure to vote below so that we can determine if there is any interest.
All,
The library will be closed on Monday 1/21, so our next meeting will not be until 1/28. Hope to see you there!
