KnightPals is Austin’s weekly open-air chess gathering for players of all ages and skill levels. **Every Friday at 7:00 PM**, we meet at the picnic tables in Pease Park (1100 Kingsbury St) for a relaxed evening of strategy, conversation, and community. Whether you’re a beginner learning the basics or a seasoned player refining your openings, you’ll find a welcoming group ready to sit down for a match. Our setting under the oaks of Pease Park offers a laid-back, social environment where competition and camaraderie go hand in hand. Games range from casual, friendly matches to more competitive showdowns for those who like to test their skills. You can bring your own board, or use one of ours—there’s always a seat open for a new player. Beverages are available for sale on-site, so you can enjoy a cold drink as you play or spectate. Many members stay late to analyze games, swap tips, and enjoy the Austin evening together. Whether you’re looking to meet fellow chess enthusiasts, get better at the game, or just unwind outdoors, KnightPals is the perfect midweek tradition. Join us this Thursday at 7 PM and make your next move—at Pease Park with KnightPals.

Our monthly PHP meetup. A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm

I have mentioned it before on our Facebook group page, but I have started to run out of ideas for our Meetup gatherings. For the last year, we have discussed AI a lot. We have discussed what the AI options are for WordPress, Prompt theories, Agents and many other AI things. I am afraid I will start repeating myself if we continue the AI and WordPress route. Then I decided that this is a great topic for discussion! Let's discuss what direction the WordPress Knoxville Meetup group should go. April Meetup is "Cookies, WordPress, Tech Support and Directions" We are going to have Happiness Bar and discussion of what topics you would want to discuss and in what direction our group should go. If you have opinions and topics bring them on! What is a Happiness Bar? It is an opportunity to share your WordPress stories, seek WordPress guidance, and bring your volunteer spirit to assist those with WordPress website issues. WordPress crowd support. I will bring cookies, and you just need to bring your WordPress attitude and all your ideas for WordPress Knoxville. If you need assistance with your site, please bring your laptop. It may be necessary to present the issue to the group as a whole. It would be great to see you in person, but you can also join us remotely.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
