The Memorial Sunday G/60 Chess Tournament is in less than 2 weeks! It should be a fun day of rated chess.  A few people have already registered and we are looking forward to a hopefully good turnout.  Stay tuned as we will be posting pre-registrations once or twice before the tournament (below in the Facebook comments).

It has been brought to our attention from Manoa Chess Club Director Reynolds Takata that the club will be closed until the summer session.  It seems the Park made some sudden changes.  Details follow:

Summer session: (every Monday from 6:30 to 8 pm) June 4 to August 13 [June 11 is a holiday so no club]

After the summer schedule ends, the club will be closed till the fall schedule which restarts on September 10.
