  UW Chess Club is seeking officers  
 

Hello chess players!

Brandon Farrell, the former senior Co-President of the UW Chess Club has graduated. The Club has prospered under the 4 year leadership of Brandon, and we wish him well.

Unfortunately, with Brandon graduating, we need to have officers attend the RSO orientation in order to register our club for this year, help the Co-Presidents to run the club, etc. We also would like to continue to work on acquiring funding for the Pan-Am College Championship, set up a USCF rated tournament this year.

If you would like to volunteer for a position, please email Joey and Eric at chessuw@washington.edu.

See http://students.washington.edu/chessuw/documents/constitution.doc for more information on officer positions.

 
     
   
     
 

2009 Winter quarter :
Every Tuesday and Thursday: Mechanical Engineering Building (MEB) room 234 from 5:00 - 9:00 MEB234 (or in MEB 245*).
We also have an unofficial meeting on Fridays. This is in the Cafe on the Ave, a cafe located on the Ave (what a surprise). It's at the intersection of 42nd and University Way (aka the Ave). Feel free to come and play some games there. Some of the people who show up there are not part of the university itself, so it can be an opportunity to play some different opponents. You can also get food while there. It is again starting at 7 PM.

* If there are scheduling problems, our altnernative room will be MEB 245.

 
     
  The club is very easy going, come whenever you want, and play whatever variant you want. We usually have people playing standard games, but if you like speed chess, or bughouse (siamese), or whatever, then we'll play those too. We also occasionally provide chess instruction classes tailored to the beginning and mid-level players to assist them with there game. Please sign up to our mailing list to be notified about upcoming chess instruction classes. Beginners and Grandmaster's alike are wanted. Your ability level doesn't matter, the only requirement is that you like to play chess. It's free and has no commitment so please stop by sometime and see what it's like.
