Lunch and casual Chess Meetup, Tournament Optional
Details
Hello everybody and welcome new members.
I wanted to make sure that everybody knows that I have the Citrus Heights Chess Club discord server open.
Here is the link.
Once in the discord server, under full First and Last name, please put your real first and last name as well as the corresponding user name that you are using. This way I know who is who. You can look at my name in that channel as an example.
The purpose of the discord server is to make it much easier for everyone to communicate with each other by text. If you play on chess.com and would like to record your own games, you may also upload the video on the discord server for others to see.
If you are interested in a chess tournament, the next tournament will be in June. You may sign up either through my website by clicking on contact Gregory Carr and under subject put chess tournament. In the body of the form put down your first and last name and indicate that you are interrested in joining the chess tournament.
Second option, join my discord server and under chess tournament signups just type your first and last name.
Reminder. Next chess tournament is in June. Opportunity happens once every 3 months.
