We started Westbrook Chess Club program for the Muncie Community Youth on June 11th, and now approaching our final week of the Summer- these children have surpassed all our expectations! Sometimes children learn their best moves by losing to those who are more advanced while the more advanced players learn from teaching the beginners. (It's amazing to witness)

Westbrook Chess Club will expand its services into the Fall 2026 in partnership with ArtRize Community Center and The Family Resource Center (Roy C. Buley Center). Watch for more updates and join us as we continue to make a positive impact on the youth of Muncie!

Stop by on Thursday July, 23rd at the Family Resource Center, for our end of summer celebration- Blitz Tournament, Award Ceremony and player recognition event. Refreshments will be served!
Donations and/or Sponsorships can be addressed to [email protected]

Help us to create more positive environments within the Muncie Community and for our up-and-coming young people!
Respectfully.

Westbrook Chess Club sets the stage for others to join the critical thinking movement- that will indeed, inspire our Muncie youth for life! The first Chess Club created for the Muncie community, designed for youth, will ensure the next generation of thinkers will not be left behind.

Westbrook Chess Club's unique curriculum and instruction are what sets it apart. Designed to teach chess and to teach life, which are not mutually exclusive. The first day of chess instruction was perfect.

Shout out to Mr. Criss - Indiana State Chess Champion for his support in our mission and journey to build young minds.
See you all this Tuesday!

Just now hearing about us? Westbrook Chess Club will be extending invitations to those who wish to still join this summer! (until full)
