KIDS’ NIGHT WAS A GREAT SUCCESS. THANKS TO THE VOLUNTEER CHESS COACHES!
I hope everyone had fun at kids’ night on November 28 at the club. Fifteen kids and ten chess coaches participated in the event (not counting numerous parents who attended). A drawing was held for a free chess lesson with expert chess player and excellent coach Justin Ricker. Henry Beam (kindergarten at Lincoln Elementary School) and Hollis Johnson (home school, 7 years old) each won a free chess lesson with Justin. I am definitely jealous!
By my count, ten chess coaches volunteered to help: Justin, Tim, Bob, Isaac, Calder, Wilson, Kevin, Anthony, Steve, and Dennis. I am so pleased that members of Rochester Chess were willing to volunteer their time to help support chess in our community. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Kids are welcome to play chess and receive instruction from more experienced players. Adults are welcome to play casual chess and to provide instruction if they wish. A special prize will be offered by a drawing.
