Hi Everyone!
At least 15 players dropped in on our regular Starbucks venue to enjoy fun, challenging chess over the boards this past Sunday: Ben C., Diego, Jackson, Daniel C., new player Alex H., Kevin, Mike T., new player Mehedi, Lou, Damon, Yancy, Mark, Juan, Reza, and Red, who solved the day's chess puzzle on his first try, after several players had a go at it!
We meet every Sunday and Wednesday afternoon from 3 p.m. on through closing time at the Starbucks located at 1536 Kirker Pass Rd., in the Clayton Shopping Center. We're therefore there again this Wednesday, March 13, 2024. All ages and skill levels are most welcome, there are no dues, and there's no purchase required, as players come and go anytime. There usually is a chess puzzle to solve, with the player solving it on the first try winning a free tall Starbucks drink of choice!
