CHESS this Sunday, Aug. 23 and Wednesday, Aug. 26th at Starbucks!

Hello Everyone...!

We meet every Sunday and Wednesday afternoon from 3:00 p.m. through to closing time, as players of all ages and skill levels are welcome to come and go anytime to enjoy the fun and challenge of chess over the boards at our regular Starbucks venue in the Clayton Shopping Center! As an added feature, there usually is a chess puzzle to solve, and the first player to solve it on his or her first try wins a free tall Starbucks drink of choice!

Last Sunday's session drew the most players we've seen this year, as there must have been between thirty to forty or more players, along with family, including several kids eager to play and get their game up, by the time it was time to go home!

Looking ahead, our next USCF-rated club tournament will be scheduled for Sunday, September 20, 2026 and will most likely be at the Carl's Jr. Restaurant, which is located just across the side parking lot from our Starbucks venue. Stay tuned for all the details!

See you soon, and as always don't be surprised as you play chess in our friendly community coffeehouse atmosphere that you're likely to make new friends and perhaps even to renew old friendships!
