No Chess tomorrow - November 21

Hi All,
 Just a reminder that there won't be chess tomorrow night, November 21 & we'll resume November 29.
  I will also have the apparel on the 29th. I ordered a couple extra t-shirts (both adult & child size) in case anyone forgot to order. They're $10/each.
 Have a wonderful Thanksgiving & don't forget to practice chess!

Volunteers needed for our tournament, Dec 2

Hello  MSCC Parents,

Hope you had a nice weekend!  While we were at the USM tournament yesterday, we did a little of our own tournament planning.

Can you believe it's less that two weeks away?!

Our tournament at LDMS on December 2nd is our biggest fundraiser of the year and is also a nice way to involve more of our club while having fun!  But we cannot run this tournament without you!

Please sign up (thanks Karla Klein) to help set up Friday night, run the concessions during the day on Saturday, or cleanup when it's (almost) over.

If you have any questions at all please let me know!

Thanks

Dan

Pizza Party, Nov 8

Hi All,
  Next week we're having a pizza party at 6 pm. This is open to the chess players & their families. We (MSCC) asks for a $5 donation per person & that everyone starts out with no more than 2 slices at first just to make sure everyone gets some.
  If you're willing to bring something like soda, cookies, etc please let me know.
   Thanks!

Chess starts Wed 10/18/17

I'm so excited about Chess Season starting, I'm getting mixed up. :) So we have to wait a tad longer, just till Wednesday (10/18/17) for it to start & yes, I'll have Chess Apparel forms. Sorry for the confusion.

Chess club starts tomorrow!

Hey All,
 The wait is finally over! Tomorrow night is the first class of  the 2017 season.
  We will also have order forms for chess apparel. If you can't make it & would like to order, let me know & I can e-mail it you. The order forms are due November 1. This way the merchandise will definitely be done in time for our tournament held at Lake Denoon on December 2. Also, this is one of the fundraisers we do as a club.
   See you tomorrow night!

Starting soon!

The first chess club meeting of the school year is just over two weeks away!

If you haven't signed up already, please do so soon!  It will make the first night go more smoothly if we can have most students pre-registered.

Also, you will get a Chesskid account very soon after registration and can then begin playing online immediately!  Chesskid is going to be a great addition to our weekly club lessons and we're really looking forward to every student having access and being able to track their progress!
