Chess Republic

You can expect a casual laid back environment while enjoying a game or multiple games of chess with some friendly banter. Depending on who you play with they may prefer a more quiet game, playing with a clock, or a more socializing experience.

Feel free to come and go as you like. No need to show up right at the starting time. If you have a chess board and pieces, feel free to bring them. There will usually be a few extra boards and pieces, if not, you can just pull up a chair and grab the next game. You can purchase refreshments in Wholefoods (they have an amazing assortment of fresh baked goods, snacks, and beverages).

Participants will likely be in their outdoor seating area with a chess board already set up. FYI, this is a recurring meetup. Vivek won't be in attendance, but Richard and other regulars will likely be present.

Come hang out and play some chess with like minded individuals. All skill levels are welcome! We usually have players in the 2100 - 800 ELO range. This is a free event.

Bring a chess board if you have one!
