It will be another fun night of chess action. As you can see, there will be a few players with no opponents and besides, there are usually a few players there for casual chess. Stop on by to watch the action or play yourself. We open at 6pm and the league starts at 7pm.

And it looks like there is interest in starting our Thursday night chess at Teekos Tea and Coffee House at the northeast corner of Latson Rd and Grand River in Howell. We will see if our private room is still available. If not or if not the first week, there is still plenty of space in the main coffee shop. Stop on by.
