I am moving to riverhead in Jan. Is that club getting any attendance? Maybe it needs rebuilding?
Any news on the club at Riverhead?

Come join the Rock'n Robin Chess Club at the Massapequa Central Ave public library from 6:00-8:45 pm every Monday! Our club welcomes players of all skill levels, from beginners to experts. We also hold casual chess tournaments and other events that are perfect for players who want to improve their skills and enjoy friendly competition.

No registration is required, come on down Monday nights and start playing. We look forward to seeing you there!
Pretty much all clubs start as a bunch of "woodpushers" getting together but the more successful clubs evolve into USCF affiliates that run rated tournaments from time to time. In my opinion, a balance of "open nights" and tournament play should beaimed at. Once you get a "feel" of the wishes of your membership, the balance of activity will be established. Once a club is established, offer to have guest lecturers, simultaneous exhibitions, consultation games and, if possible, getting into a league to play other clubs in the area.
Spread the word! The Rock'n Robin chess club will be hosting a Free Chess tournament! It will be on Monday June 24th 2024 (next week) at the Massapequa central avenue public library, 6 rounds, 10|0 games. Club starts at 6:00 PM, Tournament starts at 6:30 pm on the dot, NO LATE ENTRIES. Free Pizza will be provided, top placers win prizes as well!
We meet normally every week on Mondays from 6:00pm to 8:45pm. We host tournaments every quarter near or on the equinox/solstice!
Enjoy the free chess tournament at Massapequa. That's far for me.

If there will be a chess tournament somewhere in Nassau or/and Queens, please post it here. Let's play the tournament and know each other.
Maybe we can play chess at Cunningham Park this summer.
