Chess in the Parks!
About Chess in the Parks:
Join us and other chess players, coaches, and volunteers for an afternoon of Chess in the Parks! We will have chess equipment, clocks, and fun chess variant sets for lending out and we'll have volunteer chess coaches on hand to teach and discuss the wonderful game of chess! Occasionally, we or other local chess groups will organize mini tournaments or other types of chess events.
All are welcome! This event is free! No RSVP is required.
