LCCC Newsletter and Events - 022519



Easy on the eyes - but too much green for me.
Livingston County Chess Club Events
March 4th  - Club Speed Tournament
Two 5 minute games against the same opponent – one game with White and one with Black.
Win both or win and draw and win the match. Split the two games and you draw the match.
We will play 3 or 4 rounds that night, depending on the number of entries.
This is a fun and quick event so be sure to be here on March 4th

Casual chess on February 25th.                                               
 Kid’s Night on March 11th.

Also, the Club President is starting the Ladder Tournament again!
You simply look at who is in attendance that is above you on the Ladder and challenge them to a game! If you win, you move to the space above them. If you draw, you move to the space below them. If you lose, you stay where you are! It’s just a fun little motivation to have when playing your casual games! Ladder Rules will be available at the Club!
