GC has a lot of clubs… like a lot of clubs… like an absurd amount of clubs. Keeping up with all of the clubs can be a lot on your plate. I created this segment where you can get bite-sized information about a club, so you can get a small taste of each one. Just don’t bite off more than you can chew.

Today’s club to chow down on is Chess Club, affectionately referred to as the “Pawn Shop” by its members. Here you can pawn off a bit of your time for a piece of knowledge. Unlike a chess board, Chess Club isn’t black and white. There are a myriad of skill levels: from serious to rocky to competitive.

No matter if your Elo is over 2,000 or you don’t even know what an Elo is, you’re welcome here! It won’t take long to get you squared away.

Chess never goes stale, after only three turns there are over 121 million possible positions!

That’s not even including all the variants of chess. Short on time? Try Blitz chess with games lasting less than 10 minutes. Want company? Try 3-person chess, 4-person chess, or tournament style! Bored on the bus? Try out a chess puzzle. Feeling silly? Try duck chess, giveaway chess, or atomic chess.

Meeting every Monday in Room 232 from 3:30 to 4:30, people come to make moves and open up. So come out of your castle and check us out! There is a treasure chess of opportunity here, I promise you won’t get board of all my jokes!

Contact Mrs. Shames if you want to join!
