B’nai Israel Synagogue at 7:00.  Please bring $1 donation.  Casual chess and possibly an unrated tournament.

Our first meeting at the Synagogue had 9 players and they held a G/10 unrated tournament.  Everyone was very happy with the playing site and the snacks provided!  Tuesday night we had about 25 players with the recent addition of a few school clubs merging with the RCC.  It’s great to see so much chess activity in our community.

Tuesday night – Tuesday night we will be having our officer meeting, elections, and a casual night.   If you have an interest in taking a larger role within the club please email me, matt@smarterchess.com, and I will put you on the ballot.  Current positions.

Elections 

The elections will be held at the club on October 29th and members will have the chance to vote via email or in-person in advance if they cannot attend on 10/29. If you’re interested in re-running for your current position or a different position please send me an email and I can add you to the ballot.  I know Jack is looking to move to Treasurer to fill Chris’ shoes.  I’ll be running for secretary again but don’t mind if someone else wants to fill the role.  Roy Knuth is looking to step down as VP.

Thanks everyone,

Matt
