The class will meet on Zoom once per week from 1:00-2:30 PM CDT on Saturdays beginning on August 27, 2022. Master Milosevic will cover the first half of the book in 8 classes, which will be free to members of Rochester Chess. You can check your membership status here: https://rochesterchess.com/?page_id=3099
