Chess Beginners
Class | Available
Join this six week program to learn (or re-learn) how to play and enjoy this fun and brain cell building board game. You'll learn how the pieces move, how to set them up, their point values, how to "develop" your pieces, tactics like "castling", and "promotion" and how to "check-mate" (beat) your opponent. It's a great way to socialize, connect with children, grandchildren and friends of all ages.
