ChessKid Announces Library Chess Club Initiative
ChessKid is excited to announce its new Chess Clubs in Libraries initiative! This program sends out free club starter kits in North America. Each starter kit includes:
- 5 chess boards & pieces (sets)
- A "How the Pieces Move" poster
- Free ChessKid Gold Memberships
Carey Fan, CEO of ChessKid said: “ChessKid is proud to help support the start-up of Chess Clubs in Libraries. Starting a scholastic chess club has many advantages for kids, schools, and the larger chess community. Kids learn from each other, and having others at the same skill level can build enthusiasm for playing."
Interested U.S. or Canada-based schools can apply until the application deadline on November 24, 2022. You can find the application at go.chesskid.com/freelibrarykit.
