Sunday Chess Club Announcement

Beginning the first weekend in June, the Alabama Scholastic Chess Foundation will sponsor a Sunday Afternoon Chess Club series running throughout the summer.

There is no cost to join, and equipment is provided. Students are invited to bring their parents and learn Chess, International Checkers, and the Asian game of Go. These games are currently classified as “Mind Sports,” and are featured in tournaments around the world.

This will be a weekly event from 2:00 p.m.  to 5:00 p.m. CST at the Books-A-Million at Broodwood Village Mall in Homewood, Alabama, near the intersection of Highway 280 and Lakeshore Drive. The gaming area is located upstairs in the Children’s section of the store, and the event is sanctioned and monitored by Books-A-Million. Students will sign in and out for safety.

Again, this is a free, weekly event designed to foster interest and enjoyment in classic games of strategy played around the world today, promoting educational and social development in young people.
