We're excited to announce our upcoming Founders' Café series of community meetups. Beginning this coming Monday, July 22, we're setting up boards at Julius Meinl, 4363 N. Lincoln Ave. in North Center, and at La Catrina, 1011 W. 18th St. in Pilsen, from 7 to 9 PM (see schedule below). Come visit us, hang out and enjoy a game -- and consider joining the Chicago Chess Center as a Founders' Court member. We need your support to move out of the coffeehouses and into our own space!
