CHESS this Sunday, February 5th at Starbucks!

Hello!

At least 18 players enjoyed chess over the boards this past Wednesday, including at least three more new players and at least a couple players we haven't seen in quite a long time! They all are: Tony, Bert, Eric Z., Albert, Matthew, Ernie, Zachary, Sam M., Mike T., Mike S., Meredith, Vishwa, Nando, Red, Ty, Morgan, Duncan, and Julia! Did I miss anyone?

We meet every Sunday and Wednesday afternoon from 3:00 p.m. through to closing time at our usual Starbucks venue, in the Clayton Shopping Center, at 1536 Kirker Pass Rd., just up from the Concord corner of Ygnacio Valley Rd. and Clayton Rd. . . . We welcome players of all ages and skill levels, from beginners to masters! There are no dues, there is no purchase required (but it would be nice), and players come and go anytime. To play rated club tournaments, however, entry fees are in order, and players must be members of the US Chess Federation.

We meet again this Sunday, February 5th, same times, same place, and players there early have a chance to compete to be the first to solve a chess puzzle on the first try to win a free tall Starbuck drink of choice! Join us, have fun, make new friends, renew old friendships!

See you soon,
