Saturday AM Chess Club!

Update:  by popular demand, this program will continue in January, after taking a break for December.

Who:  Anyone. Any age.

What:  Chess. Learn. Teach. Practice. Play.

Where:  Searsmont Town Library & Community Building.

When:  Saturdays 9-10am beginning in October.

Why?  Chess is a great tool for:

    • concentration

    • thinking ahead

    • considering variables

    • mental flexibility

    • insight

    • and learning how to lose with grace

 

This community program is offered for free.

 

The library currently owns 2 chess sets. If you own a chess set and you are comfortable bringing it to Chess Club, please do.

 

Games will not be timed, unless individuals wish to bring their own clock and agree upon its use.

 

An effort will be made to match players against opponents of similar experience, but it will be helpful for beginners to start playing against more experienced opponents to help facilitate learning the game.


 

Registration is required so that we have an idea of our total numbers.

Please email:  name, age, and experience level *beginner (doesn't really know the rules), **intermediate (knows the rules), ***experienced (has played many games).
