Folks,
If you know a young person (grades 3-12) interested in chess, you should sign them up for The Academic Athlete Chess Club meeting this Sunday in York.
It's free, equipment will be provided, and kids will get a chance to meet and play against other young chess players and get individual or group instruction at their level from special guests including Jessica and Eric from York Chess Club, Mike Koplitz from York's Royal Rooks, and Pennsylvania State Chess Federation President, Leteef Street.
This is our first time working with The Academic Athlete and we hope to continue working with them to create a strong youth chess culture in York County.
Registration is required. Also, this is a kids-only event, so you will be dropping off and picking up. Looks like we're going to have some rain this weekend. Perfect chess weather!
