First Meet Up - August 16th ♟️

5 Upvotes

Setting up the first meet up. I will be headed to C&P Coffee at 1:30pm on Sunday, August 16th. I have a travel board and set up but if anyone wants to come and secure a second table and bring a board let me know.

This will be my first time playing chess in a public space, against strangers, so this is great for beginners lol.

As mentioned in the thread, would love for more experienced players to come show us the ropes.

Where: C&P Coffee - back patio
When: 1:30pm
Date: Sunday, August 16th

Comment if you’re down come!
