NEW Salem, Oregon weekday evenings chess club!

The new Capitol Chess Club will have its inaugural meeting at the Ike Box (corner of Cottage and Chemeketa in downtown Salem, OR) on Monday, August 17.

All chess players are welcome to drop by and welcome this great new Salem chess venue, which will offer a weekday evening opportunity to play as a complement to the Salem Chess Club that meets in West Salem Library (Saturdays 1-5).

The plan is to meet weekly, every Monday night, from 6:00 until close for casual games or speed chess. Please bring your sets and boards and clocks if you want to use one, and please plan to support the Ike Box coffee/snack bar with your patronage in return for their gracious welcome.

For the first few meetings, Ike Box summer hours may still be in effect, so the club might close early (8:00 p.m. rather than 10:00). As soon as summer hours are over, closing time will be 10:00 p.m.
