Sometimes it's nice to sit across a "real" board from someone. Does anyone know the "local" chess clubs available in the Pacific NW? I'm from Eugene and the only club I know of is at the U of O.

 I think real chess clubs have suffered a huge decline due to the internet and strong cheap, chess programs.

 I fly back to the states 1-May and I'm home for a week. I'll try to be there on 4-May. I'll bring my board and clock.

You'll get much better games at the UofO club, but some variety is nice, which is the best reason for visiting corvallis.
