Belated report on the Juniors Chess event

Where did the summer go to?  Hope that you enjoyed yours and that those who have recently made the transition to 'big school' are having a good time settling in. Back on the 12 August there was a juniors event in the Library supported by Bob Wildig, Sue Sanders, John Hall and myself with some junior players lending a hand too. Rugby Art Gallery and Museum have given us the go-ahead to run another one in the Christmas Holidays so we'll be in touch then.

Meanwhile, lest we forget quite how much fun this was, here is a picture of Bob slightly flummoxed by the Marvel Super Heros chess set. :-)


It really was a great venue. As you can probably see its like chess in a goldfish bowl. We even attracted the attention of someone who who donated a three-way chess board. Thanks everyone - especially Jessica from RAGM for allowing us to use the room and publicising the event.
