When you come into chess Friday mornings

1. Grab your current paper packet, a chess board and a chess set from the front table.

2. Find a place to sit to work on the packet sign-off sheet or sit with another chess member to play a game of chess. 

3. Set your guidebook at the front table at the end of each day and we'll have it ready for you next week.  

4. Each week we give away tickets for advancements and we pick tickets each week to giveaway prizes.

5. As you advance a full rank, we give away certificates & prizes and honor you at the end of the chess meeting.
