CHESS this Sunday, February 23, 2025 at Starbucks!

Hi Everyone...!

At least a dozen players came by for chess over the boards this past Wednesday, and many more are expected this coming Sunday, February 23, 2025 at our regular Starbucks venue as the weather seems to be warming up...!

We meet every Wednesday and Sunday afternoon from 3:00 p.m. thru to closing time, as players of all ages and skill levels, from beginners to masters, can come and go anytime. There usually is a chess puzzle to solve, and the first to solve it on the first try wins a free tall Starbucks drink of choice!

Last Wednesday's session saw Ben, Mark, Tony, Lou, Adam Mac, Benoit, Irakli, and Bert have a good go at the day's chess puzzle, which proved too tricky for it to be solved on anyone's first try. However, Irakli gets bragging rights for finally solving it after a few tries. Ben and I early on met a chess player named Warren, who will soon be joining us.

So then, we'll see you very soon for the fun and challenge of chess, and to make a new friend or two, and even renew an old friendship or two!
